H. Lawrence's presentation of narrative viewpoint. The focus is mainly on Lawrence's third novel, Sons and Lovers, occupying a crucial position in his oeuvre and judged by critics to be his first mature piece. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhile sharing many features typical of nineteenth-century novels, it marks the emergence of a new technique of writing consciousness that functioned as a precursor to the modernist practice of dialogic shifts across viewpoints. Through a detailed linguistic analysis, Sotirova shows that different characters' viewpoints are not simply juxtaposed in the narrative, but linked in a way that creates dialogic resonances between them. The dialogic linking is achieved through the use of devices that have parallel functions in conversational discourse - referring expressions, sentence-initial correctives and repetition. The book uses stylistics to resolve current controversies in narratology and Lawrence criticism. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn approaching the study of narrative viewpoint from the angle of discourse, Sotirova arrives at cutting-edge insights into Lawrence's work. This book will be required reading for stylisticians, narratologists, literary linguists and literary studies scholars.","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45083269922967,"sku":"9781441131348","price":4974.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781441131348.webp?v=1767263760","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/d-h-lawrence-and-narrative-viewpoint-9781441131348","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
