Abstract

Mary Flannery O’Connor is famous for her religious view and self righteousness concept which she portrays on her literary works. This study aims to see hidden meaning of O’Connor’s work. This research adopts a formalist approach to analyze the work by examining its intrinsic elements to uncover how the work elements produce overall meaning and aesthetic effect. The findings highlight the self-contained nature of the literary work and emphasize the interrelationship between its various structural components to show moral lesson like realization after tragedy. The result shows O’Connor delivered moral message that through tragedy human realizes his mistake and regret is indeed at the end.
