Description
Formulaic phraseology presents the epitome of words worn and weathered by trial and the tests of time. Weathered Words concentrates on verbal art, which makes Oral-Formulaic Theory (OFT) a major point of reference. Each of the eighteen essays gathered here brings particular aspects of formulaic language into focus.
