Abstract

Abstract: Linguistic features are intended to be investigated in some literary works as carried out in the current study. This study conducted a stylo-pragmatic investigation of linguistic characteristics in the debut work of Nadia Hashimi, The Pearl that Broke Its Shell. The primary objective of this research is to focus on the pragmatic analysis of the chosen speech acts in various contexts, in addition to exploring the stylistic techniques utilized in those specific texts. Pragmatics elucidates that the utilization of language in unconventional manners is deemed permissible, on the condition that language users possess an understanding of their actions. Linguistic stylistics delves into the linguistic characteristics of a given text, focusing predominantly on the utilization of language and its impact on said text. Hence this paper investigates the selected contexts in the mentioned novel by Hashimi where the texts are analyzed pragmatically besides the stylistics investigation. The study spots light on the enriched style of Nadia Hashimi in the novel “The Pearl That Broke Its Shell”.
