This book presents a cognitive stylistic analysis of the writing of
Siegfried Sassoon, a First World War poet who has typically been
perceived as a poet of protest and irony, but whose work is in fact
multi-faceted and complex in theme and shifted in style
considerably throughout his lifetime. The author starts from the
premise that a more systematic account of Sassoon's style is
possible using the methodology of contemporary stylistics, in
particular Cognitive Grammar. Using this as a starting point, he
revisits common ideas from Sassoon scholarship and reconfigures
them through the lens of cognitive stylistics to provide a fresh
perspective on Sassoon's style. This book will be of interest to
students and scholars of stylistics, war poetry, twentieth-century
literature, and cognitive linguistics.
