Syntactic Model for the Analysis of Moral Stories

Abstract

Linguistics has offered a new dimension to the analysis of a literary texts. Along with traditional approaches like biographical, psychological and sociological etc. there is a need to acknowledge the language skills that the author has imparted in structuring and constructing a work of art. This paper attempts to analyse the moral stories to develop a mechanism and methodology to study the syntactic aspect of literary works by taking into consideration the words, phrases, clauses and sentences to build the literary epitome. Grammar can not be studied in isolation and all efforts so far were isolating it from the literary circle. If one studies the literary texts focusing on the grammatical structures, it will generate amazing results.
