Proposal for literary analysis: techniques, styles and languages

TECHNIQUES, style and language of a literary

Although these three aspects are inseparable, it is desirable to know the basic material separately to judge the use of standard techniques, the style and language of an author.

TECHNICAL

Literary techniques are procedures, resources and even tricks that the author uses to present content, are assistive devices in literary works. They are older and more general procedures and wider than the style. The same techniques are used by different writers . There are technical or poetic verse, narrative and drama, some techniques are presented either in any genre.

To analyze the techniques, we can follow these steps: a.Mencionar techniques used by the author. B.Sustentar when and how to use them. C.Expresar the conclusion or opinion.

Consider a set of resources and techniques presented in literary works and whose definition can be found in a good dictionary of literature:

STYLE

Style is the way to write or talk about a writer or an orator, not as regards the essential and permanent qualities of language, but as the accidental, variable and characteristic of mode form, combine and link turns, phrases and periods to express concepts. The style is like a stamp of the author's personality.

What style are the traits peculiar to the language not only an author but also a work of a genre, a period or literary movement. Several writers can use the same techniques, but with a personal style; likewise, the same contents, themes, types of writing, genre, etc.. are employed by each author with a distinctive style. Although the style is personal, and collective styles are styles that move from one language to another.

Aspects that are taken into account when analyzing style:

Style types: simple, medium and low or sublime (rhetorical classification); clear, confused, ironic, direct, rhetorical, complex, bizarre, biting, sarcastic, solemn, festive, elegant, lanky, sober, pompous, flowery, accurate, inaccurate, ornate, natural, affected, mannered, smooth, cut, prosaic, overwhelming, bombastic, pathetic, didactic function oratorio.Recursos Poéticao dela Aesthetics: allegory, alliteration, anadiplosis, anaphora, antithesis, apostrophe, asyndeton, cacophony, concatenation, enjambment, ellipsis, or translation enálage, epanadiplosis, epithet, euphemism, hyperbaton, hyperbole, visual images, auditory images, irony, litotes, metaphor, metonymy, onomatopoeia, oxymoron, paradox, parallelism, paronomasia, periphrasis polysyndeton, pomposity, repetition, sarcasm, symbol, metaphor, synecdoche, synesthesia. How to use the techniques or discuss the content. For example, how to present the technique "author-editor", how to treat time, setting, action , descriptions, dialogues, etc..

When analyzing, we must explain what the style or what characteristics the author's style (type of style, the poetic function resources, how to deal with technical or content). Next, we must sustain at what points or portions of the work is expressed particular style, resource, or how to deal with technical or content. Finally, we add our opinion or personal feeling about style.

LANGUAGE

When we discussed this issue, we must take into account the essential and permanent qualities of language, characteristics directly related to the language as a common communication system, we must take into account issues that have not been treated in the style and techniques. Here is a series characteristics or traits that can be considered:

Levels of language or registers: worship, vulgar, literature, current, ordinary or common selected, high, hard, elaborate, standard, regional, jargon, slang, colloquialisms, obscene language, idioms, proverbs, language typical of the media communication: radio, television, film, newspapers, expressions or other literary texts, songs, legends, nursery rhymes, or language etc.Mezcla dialectosOriginalidad use, special invenciónHabilidades autorTipos of words, phrases or sentences that are used frecuenciaAmplitud or poverty of speech lenguajeAdaptación léxicoPropiedad of the nature of the syntax personajesCaracterísticas: logical order hyperbaton, repetition structures, or frases.Interrogaciones words, exclamations, ellipses, continuity or interruption bruscas.Dominio of language: general management the writing, editing language, spelling timely, literal spelling, spelling accent.

In analyzing the language of a literary work, we perform two basic actions interrelated 1.Explicar characteristics or traits of the author on the use of language. 2. Language support with examples of the work.
