Abstract
What is style? A tennis player is said to have style while another player is criticised for lack of style or having a bad style: to play tennis with style clearly does not refer simply to specific shots but rather to the organisation of total shot production. As with tennis so with art: stylistics as the study of styles deals with wholes not parts. These keywords were added by machine and not by the authors. This process is experimental and the keywords may be updated as the learning algorithm improves.
