Personal profile
Research Interests
I explore style in language; that is, how textual patterns relate to rhetorical and cognitive effects in readers. My research ranges from the stylistic analysis of literary, fictional and narrative texts, to forensic witness statements and online memes. My methods include qualitative textual analysis, quantitative corpus analysis and, lately, empirical approaches to understanding reader response.
