Deutsche stilistik ein schwedisch – deutscher vergleich

Abstract

This article focuses, from a stylistic point of view, on a comparison between German and Swedish writings. Different linguistic phenomena, such as for example the length of the sentence or the vocabulary (composed words, nominalizations) are studied in authentic German administrative texts, written within the European Commission, and their respective translations into Swedish. Also, the article deals with stylistics in general and points out the position of this discipline between literatures and linguistics.
