Excellent over-view of stylistics - By: Sally Douglas, 12 Jul 2008
Although Mick Short is sometimes prone to stating the obvious (did we really need an illustration of two chairs to illustrate deixis? I think most people know the difference between 'that' chair & 'this' chair depends upon where they are..) this is otherwise an excellent book about stylistic analysis, with useful exercises, & checklists to help with carrying out one's own analyses.
