Description

Explore the fascinating territory where language and nature meet with this scholarly work from the Routledge Library Editions: Literary Theory. First published in 1980, this book examines how real-world objects, specifically plants like cucurbits, function as symbols within literature. When plants are used as signs in text, they carry a double allegiance, working as language while drawing their core meaning from the natural world. This study traces the consequences of this relationship and how it shapes the character of both linguistics and literary studies. This original and entertaining research cuts across multiple traditional disciplines. It offers deep insights for readers interested in semiotics, botany in literature, and the way natural elements are transformed into linguistic symbols. It is a valuable addition to any collection focused on literary theory and the study of signs.
