Essays in Modern Stylistics, first published in 1981, is a collection of essays in the application of modern linguistic theory to the study of literature. The essays reflect the development in stylistics away from programmic statements towards analysis of particular literary works and effects. This selection includes studies of the theory of stylistics, linguistic approaches to the poetry of John Keats, Wallace Stevens, E. E. Cummings, Percy Bysshe Shelley and William Blake, modern metrical theory and prose style. This title will be of interest to students of literary theory.
