Discourse Analysis And Literary Text: A Stylistic Approach

Authors : Kaddouri Souad . Sahraoui Belgacem .

Abstract

Discourse has historically been a subject that depends on the analytical perspective used during the analysis process. This paper aims to investigate discourse analysis as a qualitative analysis method that deals exclusively with language characteristics within a literary context. Thus, this paper analyzes the Second Coming by William Butler Yeats from a linguistic perspective. Although both linguistics and literature are distinguished by their characteristics and purposes, this paper reveals that the two disciplines are interconnected and have an interactive relationship between them. This relationship is mainly associated with or defined in the field of linguistic Stylistics.
