STYLISTIC ANALYSIS OF POINT OF VIEW A. Narrative Point of View
> It is from a character’s point of view that events are described even though the story is told by a third person.
>
Proposed Taxonomies: * Paul Simpson’s Taxonomy (1993)
=He distinguishes what he terms: * Category A Narratives= narrated by a first-person narrator who is a participant in the story he/she is telling. * Category B Narratives= narrated by a third-person narrator either from inside or outside a particular character’s consciousness. =His taxonomy pays attention to the concept of modality, with each of his categories of narration displaying different types and degrees of modality, accounting for specific viewpoint effects. Categories: Taxonomies of Viewpoint * Perceptual and Conceptual point of view (Chatman;1990)
* Spatio-temporal and Ideological viewpoint (Roger Fowler; 1986)
=covers the difference between: * Literal Viewpoint= what someone is able to physically see. * Metaphorical Viewpoint= (e.i. someone’s opinion)
B. Encoding point of View in Language * Third-Person Narration= the narrator of the passage is not a character in the story he/ she is telling. * Omniscient= the narrator knows everything about the fictional world and the characters that he/she is describing, including those character’s thoughts and feelings. * Restricted= the narration is biased towards the characters point of view of the events described.
LINGUISTIC INDICATORS OF VIEWPOINT BY MICK SHORT (1996) * Verbs of Cognition in the Tex= readers are given information about the cognitive behavior of one character only. * Schema-Oriented Language= is consistent
