This Element explores connections between pedagogy and emotion in the teaching of stylistics in higher education. Grounded in qualitative analysis of interviews with five experienced stylisticians, it examines how practitioners perceive the value of emotion, how students' emotional responses are facilitated in stylistics, and the pedagogical affordances offered by emotion. After situating the study in relation to wider research on the teaching of stylistics and the role of emotion in language and literature education, key themes relating to the importance of emotion in shaping pedagogical practice and student learning in stylistics are identified and explored. The analysis presented here demonstrates that emotion plays a vital role in stylistics pedagogy. Subsequently, the Element draws on this analysis to offer pedagogical strategies for practically integrating emotion in productive ways in stylistics teaching. In doing so, this Element exemplifies the importance of recognising emotion as integral to stylistics pedagogy in higher education.

Researching Stylistics: A Student Guide explores key topics in literary and non-literary stylistics, examining the multiple ways in which students can undertake research in this discipline. Inherently practical and reader-friendly in focus, the book not only acts as a guide to key elements of the research process but also provides a useful overview of core knowledge and successful research projects in stylistics.The book provides an overview of stylistics as a discipline, identifying its core principles and working parameters. It outlines, in a clear and systematic way, the design stages and practical considerations needed to plan for and undertake research. Reflecting the latest thinking in contemporary stylistics, the book demonstrates how various methods can be applied to study a range of different text types. The practical activity of ‘doing’ stylistics and key examples from existing research are emphasised so that readers will be confident in their ability to apply their knowledge to their own working contexts.This is an essential text for advanced students and researchers working in stylistics and discourse analysis, and those working in interdisciplinary spaces who would be interested in exploring how stylistics can support their work.

This book develops a cognitive stylistic exploration of readers’ emotional experiences of literature.Adopting Possible Worlds Theory as a framework, the volume constructs a stylistic analysis of some of the ways in which novels elicit readers’ emotions. A typology of past, present, and future textual actual and possible worlds is formulated to frame analysis of three novels: A Fine Balance by Rohinton Mistry, Revolutionary Road by Richard Yates, and The Trick Is to Keep Breathing by Janice Galloway. The author integrates close stylistic analysis with the use of empirical data drawn from reader interviews and online reader reviews. The analysis of these diverse 20th-century novels works to show the utility of the typology for analysis formulated for this book, as well as to demonstrate the value of incorporating empirical reader data in analysis of the ways in which novels may affect readers’ emotions.
