Language and World Creation in Poems and Other Texts introduces an
interdisciplinary and practical approach to the analysis of poetry
which focuses on text worlds, namely the contexts, scenarios or
types of reality that readers construct in their interaction with
the language of texts. The book demonstrates in detail three ways
of approaching poetic text worlds, namely as discourse situations,
possible worlds, and mental constructs. Clear and detailed
introductions to linguistic theories of definiteness and deixis,
possible world theory and schema theory are included, making the
book accessible to readers who are unfamiliar with these
frameworks.
