The functions of allusion -- $tBackmatter 330 $aThis corpus-based study of allusions in the British press shows the range of targets journalists allude to - from Shakespeare to TV soaps, from Jane Austen to Hillary Clinton, from hymns to nursery rhymes, proverbs and riddles. It analyzes the linguistic forms allusions take and demonstrates how allusions function meaningfully in discourse. It explores the nature of the background cultural and intertextual knowledge allusions demand of readers and sets out the processing stages involved in understanding an allusion. Allusion is integrated into existing theories of indirect language and linked to idioms, word-play and metaphor. 606 $aNewspapers$xLanguage 606 $aAllusions 606 $aIntertextuality 606 $aNewspapers$xHeadlines 606 $aReader-response criticism 606 $aSociolinguistics 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aNewspapers$xLanguage. 615 0$aAllusions. 615 0$aIntertextuality. 615 0$aNewspapers$xHeadlines. 615 0$aReader-response criticism. 615 0$aSociolinguistics. 676 $a031 676 $a410 686 $aHF 642$2rvk 700 $aLennon$b Paul$f1951-$01030321 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910454448203321 996 $aAllusions in the press$92447152 997 $aUNINA
