Closure as reflected in Northern Sotho narrativesMakgopa, Mokgale Albert 11 1900 (has links)
The aim of the study is to survey the usage of closure as it is reflected
in Northern Sotho Narratives.
Chapter one
This chapter introduces the objectives of the research and definition of
the concepts narrative and closure. Reference is made to different
scholars to substantiate the argument.
Chapter two
Plot serves as the basis of the study of closure in a novel. The
interconnectedness of the elements of plot expressed by the presence
of different closural patterns supports this. Major mutual relationships
are distinguished, namely between author and reader as well as
between author, reader and text.
Chapter three
The principles of brevity and single effect which differentiate a short
story from other narratives play a major role in the study of closure. The
five signals of closure and the mode of approaching the end also
influence how closure is approached in this genre.
Chapter four
The study of folktales is divided into traditional and modern approaches.
Despite their difference, opening and closing are commonly based on
the syntactical position occupied by the opening and closing phrases. In
the traditional approach the position is fixed while in the modern
approach it is controlled by the presence of motifemes.
This chapter embarks on the usage of closure in narrative poetry. The
ending is doubly determined, based on structural elements and linguistic
principles. Repetition and cessation of the idea expressed in a verse
llne, are major poetic devises to illustrate closure.
Chapter six
This chapter summarizes the findings of the previous chapters and
proposals for future research. / African Languages / D.Litt. et Phil. (African Languages)
