| Abstract: | Linguistics can make major contributions to the undergraduate liberal arts curriculum, as exemplified in the relationship between linguistics and the English curriculum. The major points of contact between English and linguistics are the areas of stylistics and poetics. In the study of English, linguistics can enrich descriptions of texture (stylistics) and constrain theoretical claims (poetics). Through stylistics and poetics, linguistics can influence the undergraduate English curriculum from freshman composition to the senior seminar. The influence will increase to the extent that linguists do not make exaggerated claims of superior validity for the facts their theoretical analyses of texts uncover, and that English scholars resist the temptation to impute "scientism" to linguistics.
