Stylistic techniques in the short stories of D.B.Z. NtuliMabuza, James Khuthala Ntele 06 1900 (has links)
This is a semantic study, dealing with style and technique in the short stories of D. B. Z. Ntuli.
The study as a whole analyses Ntuli' s first six volumes of short stories.
The first chapter is an introduction, dealing with the aim of the study. The second sub-section
after aim is Ntuli's biographical notes. Full details of this author from high school attendance to
his contribution during his working experience are given. Ntuli's biography is followed by the
scope of study. Under this sub-heading, short story volumes to be analysed are clearly stated.
The fourth sub-heading is the method of approach and a conclusion.
Chapter two deals with various types of repetition, a literary technique. It analyses Ntuli's use of
language, and repetition of sentences approaching it from different angles.
Chapter three and four deal with choice of words. The former chapter handles the various types
of language elements semantically and the latter deals specifically with the ideophone. The
ideophone is sub-divided into two sub-sections: classification and usage.
Chapter five deals with proverbial expressions and these are sub-divided into two sections:
idioms and proverbs. The usage of idiomatic expressions is discussed under: verbs, nouns and
qualificatives, while the proverbs are analysed under classification and syntax.
Imagery is dealt with in chapter six. Imagery is further sub-divided into four categories:
metaphor, simile, personification and symbolism. Style and structure are discussed in chapter
seven. In this chapter various elements of language forms are handled: types of sentenceidiophonic;
negative forms of the ideophone, with conjunctives; sentences with adverbs; the
demonstratives; titles of short story volumes and naming of characters.
Chapter eight is the general conclusion, reflecting on Ntuli's style and technique with special
emphasis on his unique use of the language. Reference is made to discoveries regarding the
author's use of vocabulary, and his techniques in using repetition as well as avoiding it, which is
part of his style. His choice of words and how he arranges them on paper is also discussed.
Ntuli's choice of titles in naming his short story volumes is summed up showing that these have
been influenced by his background. The study concludes by suggesting areas that still require
further analysis in Ntuli 's short stories. / African Languages / D. Litt. et Phil. (African Languages)
