Summary/Abstract: Languages of Contemporary Literature is a collection of studies which taken together comprise an original map of the most interesting styles, idiolects and language practices of contemporary literature that are of import in both artistic and socio-political terms. The five parts of the book, each devoted to a separate aspect of literary linguistics, are: Sociologies, Dictionaries, Incarnations, Liturgies, and Creations. The authors undertake to interpret ways of appealing, expressing and storytelling in literature, based on a number of emblematic works (by writers including Miguel Ángel Asturias, Christian Skrzyposzek, Zyta Rudzka, and Tomasz Pułka).
