Description

Explore a new perspective on one of the most significant voices of the First World War. The Language of Siegfried Sassoon provides a deep cognitive stylistic analysis of the poet's body of work. While Sassoon is often viewed solely through the lens of protest and irony, this study reveals a writer with multifaceted themes and a style that shifted significantly over his lifetime. By applying the methodology of contemporary stylistics, specifically Cognitive Grammar, the author offers a systematic account of Sassoon's unique linguistic patterns. This book reconfigures established ideas in Sassoon scholarship, providing a fresh look at his literary evolution. It is an essential resource for students, academics, and readers interested in the intersection of linguistics and war poetry. Gain a clearer understanding of how Sassoon's stylistic choices reflect his complex thematic developments throughout his career.
