A great deal has been published in and about the major issues in literary stylistics, but there has been no attempt, as far as I know, to provide a clear-cut guide to such issues for the students who are just embarking on their readings about such a rapidly developing and controversial field of study. This book aims at providing such students of Applied Linguistics with a collection of the author's research papers on different aspects of Literary Stylistics. Most of these papers have been published in different journals, and since these journals might be inaccessible to the students, this book comes to make such papers available to the targeted readers.
The collection is designed to meet the need of Applied Linguistics and Literary Stylistics majors by giving them a sort of familiarity with various topics in Literary Stylistics. It may also be used as a supplementary material for post-graduate students in Literary Stylistics.
Moreover, I hope that this book will be particularly a useful guide to help researchers navigate and appreciate the diverse, ever expanding and exciting landscape of Literary Stylistics. It is true that it incorporates different theoretical orientations and stylistic domains, yet achieves an overall coherence through the sequencing of papers: this sequencing is intended to address three major issues on "style":
1. style as deviation from a given expectation
2. style as choice
3. style as recurrence.
These three issues represent the most debatable linguistic definitions of 'style'. Style as deviation from a norm is particularly relevant to signal out one specific text from others and it has its great benefits in authorship attribution. Style as choice determines the linguistic system or repertoire from which the writer has made his stylistic choices. Style as recurrence investigates the co-occurrences of certain linguistic features that could be structural, lexical, etc., a matter which provides the researcher with an idea about the way the writer's language manifests its probabilistic nature.
There are three parts in the book, the first part has three papers given over to the first issue. The second goes on with other three papers dedicated to the second issue. The third exposes two papers related to the third issue. It is the author's stance that gives priority, in terms of the number of papers dedicated for each issue, to the first two issues over the third. I have tried to maintain a balance between the three issu

Zusammenfassung der Kapitel
Der erste Teil des Buches befasst sich mit dem Konzept des Stils als Abweichung von einer gegebenen Erwartung. Die drei Kapitel untersuchen verschiedene Ebenen der linguistischen Abweichung in Faulkners Roman "As I Lay Dying", Hemingways Kurzgeschichte "Cat in the Rain" und die Verwendung von interner Abweichung als Mechanismus für die linguistische Foregrounding. Der zweite Teil des Buches konzentriert sich auf den Stil als Wahl. Die drei Kapitel untersuchen die Anwendung der Phrase-Struktur-Transformationsgrammatik auf die Analyse von literarischen Stilen, die funktionale Analyse von Nominalgruppenstrukturen in Dylan Thomas' Gedicht "There was a Saviour" und die funktionale Analyse der Transitivität in Joyces Kurzgeschichte "Eveline". Der dritte Teil des Buches befasst sich mit dem Stil als Wiederholung. Die beiden Kapitel untersuchen die Anwendung von Christensen's Schema zur Analyse der Satzstruktur als Produkt von drei Strukturprinzipien und die Verwendung von Satzlänge und -komplexität in Faulkners Kurzgeschichte "The Bear" als stilistische Merkmale.
