RESEARCH INTERESTS OF DISCOURSE STYLISTICS

Abstract

An integrative approach of discourse stylistics is explained through perspectives drawn from critical discourse analysis and discourse theory and the main points of research interests are underlined. Interdisciplinary incentives and methodological shifts are being discussed. Problems of style are being treated from the point of view of discursive practices and their relationships within the field of discourse; problems of hegemony and marginalization are pointed out, and evolutionary aspects stressed.
