Language and Literature is an invaluable international journal covering the latest developments in stylistic analysis, the linguistic analysis of literature and related areas. With its uniquely broad coverage, the journal offers readers easy access to all the important new research relevant to stylistics.
Authoritative Articles
Refereed articles from international scholars ensure that readers are kept fully up to date with the best research worldwide. Topics covered include: literary and non-literary stylistics, the connection between stylistics, critical theory, linguistics and literary criticism, and their applications in teaching to native and non-native speaking students.
Comment and Debate
The Notes and Discussion section provides a stimulating forum for debate on new and controversial contributions to the study of language and literature.
Book Reviews
New publications in the field are surveyed and expert reviews of the most important works are included.
Language and Literature is essential reading for students and academics working in stylistic analysis, text linguistics and literary theory. It is also an invaluable source of reference for native and non-native teachers of English language and literature in secondary and higher education.
