Abstract

Interpretation of a literary text is a collaborative process. The reader's own experiences, knowledge, and understanding of language play a vital role in shaping their interpretation of the text's semantic and stylistic nuances. By engaging with the text's language, analyzing the author's choices, and considering the context in which the work was written, the reader can uncover deeper levels of meaning and appreciate the artistry of literary expression. Understanding the interplay of semantics and style in literary interpretation allows us to delve beyond the surface level of a text, uncovering the intricate layers of meaning that make literature so compelling and enduring. Through careful analysis and a deep appreciation for the power of language, readers can embark on a journey of discovery, enriching their understanding and appreciation for the art of literary expression. This article explores the intricate relationship between semantics (the study of meaning) and style in literary interpretation, revealing how these two dimensions work together to create a vibrant and complex reading experience. The foundation of meaning semantics, the study of meaning, delves into the heart of language. It examines how words, phrases, and sentences acquire meaning, how their meanings can shift in different contexts, and how language shapes our understanding of the world. In literary analysis, semantics is a crucial tool for understanding the author's intentions, deciphering the underlying messages of the text, and revealing the deeper layers of meaning.
