GRAPHOLOGICAL MEANING

ABSTRACT

This article explores the graphological aspect of literary expressions from a linguistic angle in an attempt to find out how those basic components of written language called graphemes are exploited for meaning making. It seeks to find its place among enquiries within the nexus of semantico-syntactic and pragmastylistic endeavours in language. It examines the two concept of graphology and meaning in a rather cursory manner and immediately proceeds to bring to the fore the correlation between the two after extensive analysis of graphologically foregrounded data from selected poems. Conclusions are then drawn on the nature of graphological meaning and the extent to which attention should be paid to graphology in the linguistic study of meaning.
