This accessible textbook hinges on the central assumptions of
Cognitive Linguistics and Cognitive Grammar, introducing students
to the analytical tools they need to approach Stylistics, an
essential area in language analysis. The author verifies the claim
that alterations in style, triggered by different cognitive
processes, reflect alterations in meaning, and shows how they are
employed to achieve particular effects in context. The book links
theory with practice, aiming both to acquaint students with the
cognitive principles that account for stylistic expressions, and to
provide them with the tools and techniques to conduct their own
analyses. The textbook explores and explains how writers use the
resources of language to create meaning, and how readers interpret
texts. It will be of interest to advanced undergraduate and
postgraduate students on courses in English Linguistics, as well as
those working on other languages and in related areas such as
Composition and Creative Writing.
