Slight dustiness to the top of the text block. Otherwise no damage. This is the 1st serious attempt to apply linguistic methods to the structure of fiction. The author demonstrates the relevance of linguistics in 2 areas. 1st, the theory of language provides a "framework" or "model" for the general structure of fiction, a way of understanding traditional concepts like plots, theme, character, style, point of view. 2nd, linguistics offers a method of analysis for practical criticism of actual texts.
