About this book

Language through the Looking Glass: Exploring Language and Linguistics by Le V. Harris, Trevor A.. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780198700050.

What can wordplay--as understood in the broadest sense--teach us about language, its functions, characteristics, structure, and workings? Using Lewis Carrolls Alice as a starting point, Yanguello takes the reader on a vivid and unconventional voyage into the world(s) of language, charting the major themes of linguistics along the way. This is an entertaining and original introduction to the nature of language that will appeal to students and teachers alike.
