Linguistics and the figures of rhetoric -- 'This bread I break' : language and interpretation -- Literary criticism and linguistic description -- Stylistics -- Music in metre : 'sprung rhythm' in Victorian poetry -- Pragmatics, discourse analysis, stylistics and the celebrated letter' -- Stylistics and functionalism -- Pragmatic principles in Shaw's You never can tell -- Style in interior monologue : Virginia Woolf's 'The mark on the wall' -- Work in progress in corpus stylistics : a method of finding 'deviant' or 'key' features of texts, and its application to 'The mark on the wall' -- Closing statement : text, interpretation, history and education. Over a period of over forty years, Geoffrey Leech has made notable contributions to the field of literary stylistics, using the interplay between linguistic form and literary function as a key to the?mystery' of how a text comes to be invested with artistic potential. In this book, seven earlier papers and articles, read previously only by a restricted audience, have been brought together with four new chapters, the whole volume showing a continuity of approach across a period when all too often literary and linguistic studies have appeared to drift further apart.
