Abstract:

Language and Creativity explores the creativity inherent in everyday
spoken language.

Creativity in language has conventionally been regarded as the
preserve of institutionalized discourses such as canonical literature
and the discourse of advertising. In Language and Creativity Ronald
Carter analyzes naturally-occurring spoken language to reveal that
ordinary people in everyday speech contexts demonstrate creative
capacities for sensitivity to their contexts. Illustrated with
examples, and integrating current theory in both language and
literature studies, the book underlines the importance of the
creative choice, automaticity and repetition which is involved in
informal communication.

Linguistic Field(s): Sociolinguistics, Discourse Analysis
