Abstract:

Provides a clear introduction to the key terms and frameworks in cognitive
poetics and stylistics

By paying close attention to the way texts are written and the language they
use, as well as what we know about reading and the human mind, cognitive
poetics and stylistics provide unrivalled approaches to the examination of
textual effect. The book introduces the theoretical principles and practical
frameworks which make up these disciplines. Each topic is explored through
original analyses of a wide range of texts, including poetry, prose, dialogue,
song lyrics, political discourse, and linguistic transcripts. Ultimately, the
book supplies students, teachers, and researchers with the practical skills to
analyse and investigate their own responses to literary and non-literary
texts. Up-to-date and forwarding-thinking, this is a ‘textbook for the future’
that charts a new stylistics and pioneers original ground in cognitive
poetics, making it attractive to students and researchers alike. 

Key Features

* Outlines the foundations of the discipline and addresses cutting-edge
developments 

* Contains practical analyses, innovative exercises for students, and further
reading suggestions in each chapter

* Addresses the recent attention to multimodal and digital literature and
research into empiricism and emotion

This book is distributed in North America by Oxford University Press under the
Edinburgh University Press imprint and with the Edinburgh ISBNs.
