Literatur and linguistics: approaches, models, and applications: studies in honour of Jon Erickson

This volume was published in 2002 by Wissenschaftlicher Verlag Trier as a Festschrift, a traditional academic honorific collection designed to commemorate the career of a distinguished scholar. It was compiled specifically to celebrate the contributions of Jon Erickson, a prominent figure in the field of linguistics and literary studies, gathering research and essays from colleagues and former students to reflect the breadth of his influence in these interconnected disciplines.

The book serves as a focused exploration of the intersection between literary theory and linguistic analysis, a hallmark of Erickson's own research interests. By synthesizing various theoretical models and practical applications, the contributors intended to provide a comprehensive look at how structural and formal linguistic approaches can illuminate complex literary texts. The collection is highly specialized, primarily serving as a reference work for libraries and researchers deeply engaged in the academic discourse surrounding contemporary linguistic frameworks.
