MIRZA KHALIL A. BEG DEPARTMENT OF LINGUISTICS FACULTY OF ARTS ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH - 202002 (INDIA) 2005 ^,.Azad/./,;> The Style of Hemingway: A Stylistic Study of Language Devices Used by Ernest Hemingway in his Major Literary Works In the present research, we have made an attempt to study stylistically the literary language of the American literary writer Ernest Hemingway. Here our focus is on fmding out the literary stylistic devices that bestow idiosyncrasy on the writing of the concerned writer. His manipulation and careful choice of words make his language rich and his penchant for innovative expression and syntax makes his style unique. All the stylistic devices which are used by Hemingway in his literary works create cohesion and coherence i.e., they make a literary text sensible. He handles the literary stylistic devices in a way that makes his style deviant from the language norms and different from other writer s' style as well. This study is carried out at the different linguistic levels namely; phonology, syntax, semantics and discourse. It comprises nine chapters apart from appendix and bibliography: CHAPTER ONE: The first chapter deals with the acknowledged features of a literary language and shows how it is different from a non- literary language. Here we introduce the objectives and hypotheses of this study. The excellence of Hemingway as a novelist and his contribution as a poet are outlined. A brief introduction of each novel under study is also dealt with in this chapter. CHAPTER TWO. This chapter outlines the different literary theories and their relationship with the language of literature. They are traced chronologically starting from Russian Formalism and ending with Linguistic Stylistics. CHAPTER THREE: This chapter focuses on the main stylistic approaches to literary language. It presents the viewpoints of the linguists who put forward these approaches. CHAPTER FOUR: From this chapter onwards, we highlight the methodology of the study. In this chapter we deal with the stylistic devices at the phonological level. After the analysis of some poems of Hemingway, we have observed that many of the poems are deviants from the acknowledged system of poetry. They belong to what is called Tree verse' or 'liberal verse'. Poetic language in general has the features of being foregrounded. The use of alliteration, rhyme, meter and rhythm are the main attributes of verse. They play a vital role in making a poem phonologically and superficially cohesive. Free verse, as it has been noted in the poems under investigation, does not make use of any fixed metrical scheme. It represents a kind of deviation from the poetic norms. Hemingway also uses the enjambment which is another violation of the concordance between the unity of rhythm and syntax in the lines of verse. He throws a part of the syntagm over to the second line. That leads to a break in the rhythmico- syntactical unity of the poems' lines. CHAPTER FIVE: The syntactic stylistic devices are discussed in this chapter. It ushers us to say that Hemingway's style is different from other literary writers because he uses a different structural design of utterances. This appears in his use a special syntactical system which is a variant of the general syntactic model of English language. The changes, he makes in the syntactic pattern of the structures of the utterances in his literary works, show his extraordinary command over the English language. Moreover, we have come up with the idea that the way Hemingway uses stylistic devices to pattern sentences does not hinder the intelligibility of the utterances, and this is the major condition in the use of such kind of style in literature. It has also been found that some of the syntactic stylistic devices which are discussed in this chapter have concordance with the Chomeskian theory of 'Generative Grammar' because these devices to some extent have the power to generate an unlimited number of sentences within the given pattern. It also appears to us that some syntactic stylistic devices such as parallel construction, repetition, enumeration stylistic inversion, polysendeton, etc are kinds of foregrounded elements in the writing of Ernest Hemingway. CHAPTER SIX: This chapter deals with the semantic stylistic devices which have the attribute of adding a stylistic meaning to the utterance besides the acknowledged grammatical and lexical meaning which the sentence already has. Such stylistic meaning goes alongside with primary one and it is superimposed on it. The basic aesthetic principle of communication that dominates literary writing in general is foregrounding. We have noted that most of the semantic stylistic devices which have been tackled in this study are, to some extent, foregrounded. Metaphor is among the most prominent ones that show a semantic oddity, i.e., foregrounding. It has also been observed from the works of Hemingway that in foregrounding the linguistic form, with the help of stylistic devices, is given an additional meaning beyond its literal and normal interpretation. CHAPTER SEVEN: The discourse stylistic devices that have been investigated in this chapter are important aspects of the cohesion or connectedness of the literary texts. For example, Hemingway uses deictics as a device that helps to create the world of narrative by referring to objects, places and time that have occurred within the literary text as well as to extend the world of literary text to objects and events the readers have not yet seen or encountered with. Hemingway in his three novels under analysis uses 'cataphoric references' at the very beginning of the first paragraphs of each one. This stylistic device conspicuously coheres the text. It equally creates a kind of friendly attachment with the readers as though the readers had known the characters of the novels before. In addition to that, it has been shown to us that Hemingway uses 'endophora' as a kind of cohesion. Endophora helps to define the structure of a text. Its reference is intra-linguistic situation. And he too makes use of 'exophora' which has no role to play in cohesion. Its reference is extra-linguistic situation. It similarly helps to connect the events of the text with the real world. The other important aspects that can be perceived from the concerned works of Hemingway is that he skillfully uses conjunctions which have a significant role to play in joining sentences. The connective ties grammatically link the clauses and sentences together and coherently join the ideas in order to create a consistent sense to the readers. The connective ties which are used in the texts indicate that what follows in a sentence bears some relation to what has already been said. CHAPTER EIGHT: This chapter shows that the occurrences of foregrounding and de-automatization which are features of literary writing can be noted at the different linguistic levels. It also presents cohesion and coherence at different levels of linguistics as factors used by Hemingway to make the text sensible and understandable. CHAPTER NINE: In this chapter we summarize the present study. It also characterizes the findings and shows how the goals are met and the research hypotheses are answered. Finally, the appendix and bibliography are introduced at the end of this dissertation. Parenthetically it may be noted that as far as appendix is concerned, in India Hemingway is commonly known as a novelist more than as a poet, so we faced difficulties in finding out his poems. After along time of searching, we got a collection of Ernest Hemingway's poems (88 poems) from the American Library Centre, New Delhi. Because of the shortage of that collection, we include the 30 poems in the appendix for any clarification. t^^^'^ THE STYLE OF HEMINGWAY: A STYLISTIC STUDY OF LANGUAGE DEVICES USED BY ERNEST HEMINGWAY IN HIS MAJOR LITERARY WORKS THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE AWARD OF THE DEGREE OF tn w By HASSAN MOHAMMAD SALEH JAASHAN Under the supervision of PROF.

Then, I have to thank my supervisor, professor. Fatiha KAID BERRAHAL in THELIDJI Amar -University-Laghouat For the continuous support of my PhD study and related research, for her patience, motivation, and immense knowledge. Her guidance helped me in all the time of research and writing of this thesis. I could not have imagined having a better advisor and mentor for my PhD study. There are no proper words to convey my deep gratitude and respect for her. She has inspired me to become an independent researcher and helped me realize the power of critical reasoning. In fact the Thesis writing process has been a long journey for me, seven years of research that would not have been possible without her belief in me. I also thank my wife and partner who supported me through this venture and for her stimulating discussions, for the sleepless nights we were working together, especially these last three months, before deadlines, and for all the fun mixed with irritability we have had in the last six years.

Supervisor: Dr. Kate Macdonald Master dissertation submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of “Master in de Vergelijkende Moderne Letterkunde” by Birgit Van Asch. Acknowledgements First of all I would like to thank my supervisor, Kate Macdonald. I am convinced that I could not have wished for better guidance. Knowing that she was always there to immediately answer my questions or willing to proofread chapters, I felt reassured and there was nothing more motivational than reading her expert comments on my writings. Secondly, I also owe great gratitude to my parents. For months, they allowed me to use this dissertation as an excuse for every time I burst out into tears or reacted overly annoyed at things they did or said. I want to thank them for their inexhaustible support, for always believing in me and pushing me to my limits ever since I was a child. If it weren’t for them, I would not be the student and person I am now. And although I was never able to convince my mother that literature was by no means inferior to linguistics, she has always allowed me to chase my own dreams. Also all of my friends deserve their spot here, for letting me breathe again when things got on top of me. Especially my best friend and roommate Antje has proven to be irreplaceable: thank you for doing the dishes, thank you for your supportive texts and thank you, just for being you.

Nevertheless, although he is working in a crea­ tive genre as opposed to an expository one, the writer of fiction without doubt leaves a portion of his real self among the many words that he spends portraying imaginary happenings. For this reason, in The Old Man and the Sea, I am able to examine. autobiographical metaphors that reveal Ernest Hemingway's aesthetics as intimated by the symbolic words and actions of Santiago as the fisherman-artist. The existence of such an element in The Old Man has been pub­ licly recognized by a handful of critics, but each of their published comments is short. Therefore, I have endeavored to amplify what up to now has received only cursory treatment. I wish to express appreciation to the members of my dissertation committee.

  • AMERICAN LITERARY MINIMALISM by ROBERT CHARLES
    AMERICAN LITERARY MINIMALISM by ROBERT CHARLES CLARK (Under the Direction of James Nagel) ABSTRACT American Literary Minimalism stands as an important yet misunderstood stylistic movement. It is an extension of aesthetics established by a diverse group of authors active in the late-nineteenth and early twentieth centuries that includes Amy Lowell, William Carlos Williams, and Ezra Pound. Works within the tradition reflect several qualities: the prose is “spare” and “clean”; important plot details are often omitted or left out; practitioners tend to excise material during the editing process; and stories tend to be about “common people” as opposed to the powerful and aristocratic. While these descriptors and the many others that have been posited over the years are in some ways helpful, the mode remains poorly defined. The core idea that differentiates American Minimalism from other movements is that prose and poetry should be extremely efficient, allusive, and implicative. The language in this type of fiction tends to be simple and direct. Narrators do not often use ornate adjectives and rarely offer effusive descriptions of scenery or extensive detail about characters’ backgrounds. Because authors tend to use few words, each is invested with a heightened sense of interpretive significance. Allusion and implication by omission are often employed as a means to compensate for limited exposition, to add depth to stories that on the surface may seem superficial or incomplete. Despite being scattered among eleven decades, American Minimalists share a common aesthetic. They were not so much enamored with the idea that “less is more” but that it is possible to write compact prose that still achieves depth of setting, characterization, and plot without including long passages of exposition.

  • On the Early Letters of Ernest Hemingway Teasing, Typewriting, Editing
    On the Early Letters of Ernest Hemingway Teasing, Typewriting, Editing E. J. F. Allen Abstract Ernest Hemingway has rarely seemed a reliable pen pal — not, in the main, through any fault of his own, but because the evidence for determining any such identity has been hard to assemble. In 2011, Sandra Spanier and Robert W. Trogdon published the first volume of Hemingway’s collected letters, and in doing so prompted a reevaluation of his epistolary habit; one that requires careful editing and close textual scrutiny. Taking the first volume of the new Letters as a case study, this article offers an interpretative approach to matters of textuality, typographic expression, and mechanical accident that lie at the heart of Heming- way’s early life-writing. In March 1924 a collection of prose vignettes appeared among the spring offerings of Shakespeare and Company on the rue de l’Odéon in Paris. The slim, snappily dressed volume, in our time, bore the name of Ernest Hemingway, and it provided the final installment of “An Inquest into the State of Contemporary English Prose”, a series devised by the bookshop’s resident handyman, Ezra Pound.1 Part of Pound’s sojourn in the 6th arrondissement was spent assembling furniture, as well as construct- ing literary careers, though it is hard to say exactly what hand il miglior fab- A shorter version of this article appeared in The Cambridge Quarterly 42.2 (2013). I am grateful to the following people for various kinds of guidance and support as I set about developing that earlier material: Kasia Boddy, Mark Cirino, Kirk Curnutt, and Sandra Spanier.

  • Ernest Hemingway and Hart Crane
    Celestial Twins Cancer Keyword : I feel Lost at Sea: Ernest Hemingway and Hart Crane Hart Crane Ernest Hemingway Love’s boat smashed on the everyday. Life and I are quits, and there’s no point in counting over mutual hurts, harms, and slights. V. Mayakovsky (To All of You)226 ne of the most significant writers (Ernest Miller Hemingway) and one of the most significant poets (Harold Hart Crane) of the so-called Lost Generation227 Owere born as celestial twins. The extraordinary quality of their writing and the tense drama of their emotionally charged lives make both of them unforgettable long after their deaths. Although there is no evidence that they ever met, their works were inspired by similar dreams. Both were extremely sensitive people who in their youth dreamed of absolute beauty and love, striving to present in their works a vital and tangible emotion. Unfortunately, that lovely dream did not survive their later years, when they grew self-absorbed and embittered. Behind their success lurked a feeling of emptiness and self-alienation. In the end, their self-destructiveness became so great that both committed suicide. How did they become such frustrated adults? 226 V. Mayakovsky was born in Cancer. 227 The term Lost Generation was coined by Gertrude Stein to refer to a group of American literary notables who lived in Paris in the 1920s and 1930s. 137 Elizabetha Levin, Ph.D. Both claimed that the roots of their troubles were hidden in their childhood. Hemingway claimed that the best early training for a writer is “an unhappy childhood,”228 while Crane prayed to get “an improved infancy.”229 From early childhood they felt estranged from their fathers; in their adulthood both waged a prolonged vendetta against their mothers; in the end, both blamed their parents in all their misfortunes.

    it was all a pleasant business: the historical context of “on the quai at smyrna” matthew stewart Boston University One of the keenest impressions which I brought away with me from Smyrna was a feeling of shame that I belonged to the human race. George Horton, U.S. Consul at Smyrna If these very simple things were to be made permanent, as, say, Goya tried to make them in Los Desastros de la Guerra, it could not be done with any shutting of the eyes. Hemingway, Death in the Afternoon “on the quai at smyrna” is one of four fictions of In Our Time whose topical context is the Greco-Turkish War of 1919–22.Originally published under the title “Introduction by the Author” in the 1930 Scribner’s edition, the story stands as a vivid counter-example to the old canard about Hem- ingway’s supposed incapacity for fictionalizing anything that he had not seen first-hand. Smyrna (present-day Izmir) burned to the ground in a fire started on 13 September 1922. Only the Muslim and Jewish quarters of this cosmopolitan center of Anatolia were spared. Eventually 250,000 refugees— non-Turks all—crammed the waterfront and were forced to remain there under barbaric conditions for nearly two weeks, an event we shall shortly examine in more detail.
