Abstract

This dissertation would be mainly discussing the rhetorical meaning of the “rose” in William Faulkner’s preeminent works, A Rose for Emily. William Faulkner has always been renowned for its virtuoso in describing the mentioned matter from multiple perspectives, in resorting to stream of consciousness, in symbolizing the heroes and heroines using rhetorical devices. While in this dissertation, much more analysis would be falling onto the rhetorical meaning of a particular image, namely, the rose. Firstly, this dissertation would be touching on the superficial as well as the denotative meaning of the “rose”, and then its connotative meaning in the mentioned works, ultimately, its connotative meaning in the related works which would be largely open for future forthcoming scholaristic studies.
