Rezension zu „Alliteration in Culture “
'This is a unique and richly rewarding account of alliteration which establishes its cultural and linguistic interest, and will be a valuable resource for students and scholars.' - Nigel Fabb, Strathclyde University, UK 'This collection offers a broad view of alliteration, one of the most widely shared cohesive and creative applications of human language. This cross-cultural poetic and rhetorical universal is explored in its anthropological, socio-cultural, poetic, stylistic, and linguistic contexts in diverse settings and traditions. The changing attitudes to alliteration, its multiple forms, and its uses and abuses, will be of interest to any reader curious about language and will provide valuable information to scholars from all areas in the arts, humanities, and social sciences.' - Donka Minkova, UCLA, USA
