Abstract

Since its first performance in 1605, Eastward Ho had heightened public interest by giving audience a taste of entertaining, satirical play set around the life of Touchstone, a hard-working and honest goldsmith. The play depicts the conflict between contrasting figures: Touchstone’s daughters – the ambitious Gertrude and the obedient Mildred – and his apprentices – the prodigal Quicksilver and the faithful Golding. These strong characters have driven intriguing plots into an ending where each side receives what he or she deserves. This story describes the characters of urban masculinity as well as female attitudes towards social status, class, and property. A moralistic view is developed in a conventional, yet entertaining way, where the line between virtue and vice can be distinctly discerned. This is one of the characteristics of the period and predominantly reflects the authors’ viewpoints. Created by three prominent playwrights; Ben Jonson, John Marston and George Chapman as a collaborative task, some portions of Eastward Ho are alluded to in well known titles, places, characters, proverbs and lines, of previous works near the period. This essay therefore tries to explore the social changes of the play by its various forms of allusions.

Abstract

Going through the journey together, what makes the travel writing of Samuel Johnson differs with the biography of himself written by his travel-mate, James Boswell? One engrossing narrative; The Scarlet Letter has different voice of writing with another brilliant short story The Fall of the House of Usher despite the fact that they were written by two American writers around the same period (Nathaniel Hawthorne and Edgar Allan Poe). Each writing has different style from one person to another in a way that various perception is carved into distinct types of understandable language. In an early case, typical sense of language production and personal writing style do become crucial factors in constructing enriched and structured forms of literary works on any genre. Writing as a productive skill and an ideological exploration play a critical role for authors to express their language ability. Field of study to analyze language creation in literary works is called stylistics. Some texts in literary works can somehow affect reader’s thought or emotional feeling. This connection is related to the distance between the speaker and the reader, focusing on how a speaker transfers his language and in what way the reader grasps the textual meaning. Analyzing this special connection over time and space elements in stylistics is called deixis or deictic shift. Along with the idea, this essay will explore the deictic shift in Slaughterhouse Five or The Children’s Crusade.
