dc.description.abstract | The major characteristics of Joyce's stylistic
achievement in the organic unity of contents and expressions
are, firstlyp the 'style* is not intended
to reveal the author but the whatness, of his characters
and subjects described and secondly Joyce's
'style* contains in itself particular meanings beyond
the limits of the semantic and lexical contents
of words. These features are more specifically defined
as his use of the language for mimetic purposes
to revealp suggest and represent consciousness (sometimes
even unconscious and subconscious) mood, emotion
mental patterns thought processes physical
movement situation impression and sound effects
through his command of the rhythmical syntactical
and other grammatical, and phonological possibilities
of his medium. In his earlier worksp Dubliners and
A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man(and Stephen
Hero for comparison with the Portrait) examination
of the variety of his mimetic devices and their purposes
contributes to the better comprehension of his
works where each stylistic pattern, whether occurring
in limited locality or throughout is woven into the
whole design of the works. The main recurrent devices
can roughly be distinguished as follows andt accordingly,
Joyce's mimetic creative ability and variety
in his earlier works are to be examined under the following
classification:
1. Rhythmic (defined as 'repetition with variations')
devices to represent and reveal certain concealed
aspects and qualities of his characters;
firstly, for characterization by means of special
devices of appellations and secondly for
revealing the preoccupations and concerns.
II. Syntactical grammatical and rhythmic devices to
represent, reflect and suggest firstly, his
characters thought processes mental patterns
emotion, mood and other psychological aspects,
and secondly physical movement situation, atmosphere
and impression.
III. Phonological devices to imitate and suggest actual
and imaginary sounds | en_US |
