Subject:        Can anyone supply a title?

Hello Everyone,

Especially those interested in rhetoric and the lang. lit. problem. I
have the list of contents photocopied and no title page for a 20th C.
book. Please assist if you can.

Introduction
0.1 The lang.-lit. problem
0.2. A descriptive rhetoric
0.3 Poetic language and 'ordinary' language
0.4 A possible misgiving

1 Poetry and the Languages of Past and Present
2 The Creative Use of Language
3 Varieties of Poetic Licence
4 Foregrounding and Imitation
5 Verbal Repetition
6 Patterns of Sound
7 Metre
8 The Irrational in Poetry
9 Figurative Language
10 Honest Deceptions
11 Implications of Context
12 Ambiguity and Indeterminacy

Plus all their chapter subheadings. A great book explaining the nuts and
bolts of poetic language by the way. If anyone recognises the author
could you save me hours checking possibilities. Many thanks.

Yours in the name of Will,
William S.
