Annotations:

• Crystal and Davy's approach to stylistic analysis is that any use of language displays/shows certain features that we first we must allocate them to a particular linguistic levels and then we must assign them to one stylistic category to analyse a text. 

1. 4 definitions term "Style"

   Annotations:

   • 1 y 2 descriptive (1. individual uniqueness and 2. general description of a group of people at one time). 3. Evaluative: the effectiveness of a mode of expression (good manners/high breeding) 4. Mixed approach, overlapping/superposition of the other  three approaches (descriptive and evaluative).
   • Style always involvesan appreciation of contrast between alternatives. Style may then be seen as the selection of a set of linguistic features from all the possibilities in a language.
   • Crystal and Davy's analysis deals just with the first and the second description of Style (the descriptive approach) excluding evaluative and mixed approach(literary language
