Abstract:

This volume reflects the scholarly interests and achievements of Professor
Hiroyuki Ito in whose honour it was conceived. It is a collection of papers
on the stylistics of English and American literature written by scholars in
Japan. A wide range of approaches, from traditional philological analysis
to innovative new directions such as corpus stylistics and narratology are
found in this book, addressing literary works as varied as the writings of
Chaucer, Shakespeare, Defoe, Austen, Dickens, and Mark Twain with Irish
folktales and English-language Haiku. This volume also offers an overview
of the state of the art in stylistic studies of English literature in Japan. 

The papers have been divided into four parts according to manner of
approach: Philological Approaches, Corpus Stylistics, Narratology and
Literary Stylistics.

This Year the LINGUIST List hopes to raise $60,000. This money will go to help 
keep the List running by supporting all of our Student Editors for the coming year.

See below for donation instructions, and don't forget to check out our Fund Drive 
2009 LINGUIST List Restaurant and join us for a delightful treat!

http://linguistlist.org/fund-drive/2009/

There are many ways to donate to LINGUIST!

You can donate right now using our secure credit card form at  
https://linguistlist.org/donation/donate/donate1.cfm

Alternatively you can also pledge right now and pay later. To do so, go to:
https://linguistlist.org/donation/pledge/pledge1.cfm

For all information on donating and pledging, including information on how to 
donate by check, money order, or wire transfer, please visit:

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as such 
can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 501(c) Non 
Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These donations can be 
offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax payers 
only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your financial advisor.

Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match any 
gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your contacting 
your human resources department and sending us a form that the EMU Foundation fills 
in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative procedure 
that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny. 
Please take a moment to check if your company operates such a program.

Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
