Paperback / softback

Item not Available

Description

Cognitive poetics is a new way of thinking about literature, involving the application of cognitive linguistics and psychology to literary texts.

This book is the first introductory text to this growing field. In Cognitive Poetics: An Introduction, the reader is encouraged to re-evaluate the categories used to understand literary reading and analysis.

Covering a wide range of literary genres and historical periods, the book encompasses both American and European approaches.

Each chapter explores a different cognitive-poetic framework and relates it to a literary text.

Including a range of activities, discussion points, suggestions for further reading and a glossarial index, the book is both interactive and highly accessible. Cognitive Poetics: An Introduction is essential reading for students on stylistics and literary-linguistic courses, and will be of interest to all those involved in literary studies, critical theory and linguistics.
