Sprog og stil (kapitel 20 i den fortløbende nummerering i Sproghistoriens forskellige bind) og Forfattersprog (kapitel 21). I kapitel 20 fremsaettes indledningsvist en generel beskrivelse af stilidealer og stilforskydninger fra middelalderen og frem til nutiden. Dette følges op af et afsnit om talesprogets gengivelse i skrevne tekster, og kapitlet afsluttes med en beskrivelse af, hvordan danske oversaettelser af betydningsfulde fremmedsprogede vaerker har påvirket det danske ordforråd. I kapitel 21 kastes der lys over måden, hvorpå 20 danske forfattere fra Anders Sørensen Vedel og frem til Klaus Rifbjerg har arbejdet med sprog og stil i deres vaerker. Bindet er som helhed vurderet et vellykket sprog-og litteraturhistorisk vaerk, som gennem mange fine illustrationer og traeffende eksempler både fremstår appellerende for den alment interesserede laeser samt velegnet til selvstudie og undervisningsbrug. Redaktørerne har gennemført et grundigt arbejde i forhold til at henvise til andre bind i raekken, hvilket kaeder Forfatternes dansk godt sammen med serien som sådan, og i det hele taget baerer bindet praeg af en prisvaerdig redaktionel omhu. Endvidere er det vaerd at fremhaeve det omfattende ekstramateriale, som foreligger på hjemmesiden http://www.dansksproghistorie.dk. Her kan man opspore yderligere tekstmateriale fra de enkelte forfatterskaber og få uddybet bestemte sproglige traek, fx "Tegnsaetning og ytringsgraense i Vedels Saxooversaettelse". Alt dette bevirker, at Forfatternes dansk er at betragte som et vaer

Moreover, this article posits a new approach to the material, arguing that, rather than Søren Kierkegaard’s theological-psychological framework, Martin Heidegger’s fundamental ontological concept of anxiety may positively shed light on Christensen’s thematization of anxiety in the work. It is one of the aims of the article to show that Heidegger’s concept of anxiety can advantageously expand the understanding of Christensen’s representation of anxiety, as Heidegger’s confrontation with metaphysics, his In-Frage-stellen of the forgetfulness of Being, seems particularly compatible with Christensen’s poetics of systemic modernism. I examine how anxiety manifests itself in the architecture of the work, and I argue that Heidegger’s fundamental ontological interpretation of the concept may highlight some central features of the representation of anxiety that Kierkegaard’s theory of anxiety does not seem to capture.

At the core of the examination lies the inference that it is possible to trace metaleptic movements in a wideranging selection of Blixen's tales. Furthermore, it becomes evident that metaleptic movements and disclosure functions have the potential to destabilize ontological boundaries between fiction and reality in a way that deepens the literary communication between author, text, and reader.
