Forms and Degrees of Repetition in Texts ─ Detection and Analysis

Altmann and Kohler present students, academics, and researchers with a collection of objective methods utilized in the detection and analysis of various forms of repetition of textual elements from a linguistic perspective. The authors have organized the main body of their text in ten chapters devoted to shapeless repetition, positional repetition, associative repetition, iterative repetition, aggregative repetition, repetition in blocks, parallel repetitions, and cyclic repetition.
