Von der hinteren Coverseite

Poems written in the first person, poems that contain passages of conversation or dialogue, and narrative poems all rely on their readers' capacity to process discourse. Recent developments in linguistic theory, including developments that address discourse structure, offer literary scholars new tools for approaching a richer understanding of those poems. In Poetic Voices, Austin demonstrates some of the potential applications of such a discourse-based stylistics in both literary and linguistic / stylistic fields.
