MECHANISM OF COHESION IN EARNEST HEMINGWAY’S “THE KILLERS”
Journal Title: Academic Research International - Year 2013, Vol 4, Issue 6
Abstract
The present study is aimed at exploring certain cohesive relations which bind the sentences together into a unified whole in the short story, The Killers by Earnest Hemingway with due focus on projecting substitution, ellipsis and reference. The use of these mechanisms of cohesion enables the author not only to get rid of encumbering repetitions but also help to perform identifiable functions that aid in comprehending the embedded meaning within the story. The study of these linguistic devices in the selected short story shows that they make the text coherent and carry forward author’s meaning towards the readers.
