Description
Summary:This article presents, from various perspectives, the achievements of Teresa Skubalanka (1928–2016) in the field of stylistics. Her work falls within the framework of linguistic stylistics, understood as an autonomous discipline (a part of general stylistics), which differs from literary stylistics primarily in its descriptive categories, scope of research, and methodological perspectives. The result of the scholar’s multifaceted research is an original contribution to several sub-disciplines of stylistics, including theoretical, historical, descriptive, and practical stylistics. This body of work is characterised, on the one hand, by methodological consistency and a keen awareness of the complexity of stylistic issues, and on the other, by an evolution of views driven by the delineation of new research areas, the stimulation of further inquiry, and the search for optimal methodological approaches. Skubalanka’s detailed investigations were part of the dominant research trend in the second half of the 20th century, known as functional stylistics. She developed an original concept of functional style and proposed her own typology of language varieties. She enriched her stylistic theory with several operational concepts, including the notions of function, comparison, context, choice, and accommodation.
