- A Pragmatic Analysis of Shakespeare’s Sonnets.
- Abstract
-
Language can be used to imply information that is not actually stated.
Poets not always state what they mean in their poems. Such way of using
language falls within the domain of pragmatics. Thus, the aim of this study is to
identify the covert layers of meaning or the figurative language styles in
Shakespeare’s sonnet 130 and analyze them from a pragmatic perspective in
search of underlying meaning. The researchers analyzed the sonnet according to
many pragmatic devices which were the focus of the study. They include
implication, figures of speech, indirection, irony, reference and inference. The
analysis showed that researchers did not find all of the pragmatic devices, but
only found four of them, namely implication, figures of speech, irony, and
reference. It also showed that pragmatic devices are of great importance to the
text of the sonnet. - Scientific Type
