Stylistic devices have a great power of expressive meaning in literature.
There are many different kinds of stylistic devices and each kind of them
brings the different effects. This thesis is carried out to investigate the stylistic
devices commonly used in Hồ Xuân Hƣơng‟s poems and contrast them with
their English versions. The samples of the research were collected from
poems in the book “Spring Essence The Poetry of Hồ Xuân Hƣơng” by John
Balanba (2000). As a consequence, the study will help the foreigners
understand more clearly about stylistic devices in Ho Xuan Huong‟s poems,
the teachers and learners of English translate these stylistic devices better. |
