Abstract

C.D.A stylistics is an approach in stylistics which goes beyond description and semantic interpretation and gives psychological interpretation and sociological explanation of a text. This article is intended to present a psychological interpretation of Blind Owl applying functional variables such as ideational, interpersonal(tense, mood), textual(cohesive ties). This articles is trying to reply to this question: what kind of surrealistic features functional variables can represent. The hypothesis is that through functional variables some surrealistic features such as subjectivism, automatic writing, soliloquy and stream of consciousness are represented. The theoretical frame work is C.D.A stylistics and The research method is statistical- analytical, the data analysis has been done by one-stage cluster sampling proportional to sample size as well. The results indicate that Blind Owl based on linguistic evidences is subjective, reality denying and surrealistic.
