Infos

This volume invites readers to explore the stylistic resources of Welsh by comparing twentieth and twenty-first century prose in Welsh and in English translation (as well as the reverse direction). This technique brings out numerous linguistic and stylistic devices that reflect the characteristic idiom and expressive spirit of idiomatic Welsh writing.

Autor

The book is most suitable for undergraduate and postgraduate students but will also appeal to more general readers interested in either applied linguistics/linguistics and the Welsh language or comparative stylistics and the Welsh language. Its appeal is therefore likely to span both language and literature specialists.
