The contemporary critiques on the language of prose mainly focus on its rhetorical devices. Rhetoric or imago could reflect the aesthetic of prose, however, they might overlook the inner structures of language. Taking Yu-fen Ke's works as examples, some textual analysis focused mainly on their rhetoric or narrative forms. However, the reading experiences of prose not only involve the imago of word choice but also the textual coherence and the information structure. Based on the discourse unit of 'clause-complexes,' Mandarin Chinese discourse analysis and the research findings on long sentences, this paper aims to analyze Ke's writing model of long sentences and briefly discuss the relationship between Ke's patterns of language use and her writing style. |
