Stylistics Research Group is home to a group of internationally leading scholars, working in stylistics, cognitive stylistics, narratology, and empirical research.

Collectively we utilise a range of theories and methods in stylistics, applying these in contexts such as literary criticism, cultural studies, sociocultural settings, and literacy and education research.

We also apply stylistic frameworks to examine a diversity of discourse types, including contemporary and experimental literature, immersive theatre, digital fiction, online forums, reading group discussion data, political discourse, school textbooks and classroom activities.

The Stylistics Research Group is part of a cross-reference, set up by the Aachen Center for Cognitive and Empirical Literary Studies (ACCELS) at RWTH Aachen University.
