Overview
Key facts
This Literary Linguistics course from University of Nottingham is designed for literature lovers who want to explore beyond the surface, questioning how the very language in our favourite literary texts works.
We will explore the role of language in literature, using approaches from discourse analysis to corpus linguistics, from cognitive poetics to narratology.
