Introduces an interdisciplinary and practical approach to the analysis of poetry which focuses on text worlds: the contexts, scenarios or types of reality that readers construct in their inter-action with the language of texts. The book demonstrates, through the analysis of British and American poems and non-poetic tetxs, three ways of approaching poetic text worlds, namely as discourse situations, possible-worlds, and mental constructs. Clear and detailed introductions to linguistic theories of definiteness and deixis, possible-world theory and schema theory are included, making the book accessible to readers who are unfamiliar with these frameworks.
Elena Semino is a lecturer in the Department of Linguistics and Modern English Language at Lancaster University. She has published extensively in the field of stylistics, and was awarded the 1995 Poetics and Linguistics Association Prize for the best article published by a young academic.
