Linguistics for Students of Literature is a course related to the language in literature. This language is not only limited to the textual form, but also includes the verbal and physical forms of language.
Physical forms of language are the things which appeals to the senses such as lighting, sound effects, image shots, and others.
In Linguistics for Students of Literature, we study about a variety of items such as:
- Foregrounding and Interpretation
- Sounds
- Rhyme and Sound Patterning
- Rhythm
- Parallelism and Repetition
- Deviation
- Realism
- Narration in film and prose fiction
- Method of analysis
- Conversation in the novel
- Politeness phenomena
Through this course, we are able to identify what makes an audience feel what they feel when watching a movie or reading a book. The result of watching movies before and after taking this course is different. Most of us agreed that we became more critical when watching a movie and the experience helps to open up our eyes to the things that we used to take for granted, Alhamdulillah.
