| Abstract | ||
| Stylistic studies act like a bridge between linguistics and literature. They offer an opportunity for researchers to reveal the hidden aspects of spoken language in order to utilize the specific features of the author’s style to various fields, a particular aspect of a time era, or a practical characteristic of language use. This study is a literary / linguistic stylistic analysis of Soland’s Red Roses. The analysis was conducted in three scopes: genre, register, and language. The genre analysis referred to the structure of Red Roses in the light of Halliday’s Systematic Functional Linguistic framework. The register analysis revealed that the ‘Finite’ form of the clauses is in the past tense. Finally, the language analysis showed that the lexical density in Red Roses was moderate which means that the play is written for all people and for all kinds of mentalities. The study helps English instructors and English learners in understanding the way of looking at literary works, how to analyze them, and the way we use such analysis in interpreting literature and choosing texts to be presented in English learning classrooms. | ||
