Dr Jeremy Scott from the Department of English Language & Linguistics has contributed a chapter to the recently published Routledge Handbook of Stylistics (2014).
The handbook provides a comprehensive introduction and reference point to key areas in the field of stylistics. The volume includes such topics as historical perspectives centring on rhetoric; style; Old and Middle English; and formalism and structuralism; linguistic levels of foregrounding in stylistics; core elements of stylistic analysis; current areas of ‘hot topic’ research such as cognitive poetics and feminist stylistics and future and new trends. Each of the thirty-two chapters is written by a specialist in the field – Jeremy’s chapter focuses on the area of creative writing and stylistics, an emerging trend in stylistics.
