This collection from the fields of literature, theology and corpus linguistics focuses on ways in which endings are formally signaled in literature, journalism and film. It is also concerned with larger philosophical notions of closure and apocalypse. It gives examples from fairytales, Byron, Longfellow, Dillard, Barnes and South African writers.
