This book applies linguistic analysis to the poetry of Emeritus
Professor Edwin Thumboo, a Singaporean poet and leading figure in
Commonwealth literature. The work explores how the poet combines
grammar and metaphor to create meaning, making the reader aware of
the linguistic resources developed by Thumboo as the basis for his
unique technique. The author approaches the poems from a functional
linguistic perspective, investigating the multiple layers of
meaning and metaphor that go into producing these highly textured,
grammatically intricate verbal works of art. The approach is based
on the Systemic Functional Theory, which aids the study of how the
poet uses language (grammar) to craft his text in a playful way
that reflects a love of the language. The multilingual and
multicultural experiences of the poet are considered to have
contributed to his uniquely creative use of language. This work
demonstrates how the Systemic Functional Theory, with its emphasis
on exploring the semogenic (meaning-making) power of language,
provides the perspective we need to better understand poets' works
as intentional acts of meaning. Readers will discover how the works
of Edwin Thumboo illustrate well a point made by Barthes, who noted
that "Bits of code, formulae, rhythmic models, fragments of social
languages, etc. pass into the text and are redistributed within it,
for there is always language before and around the text." With a
focus on meaning, this functional analysis of poetry offers an
insightful look at the linguistic basis of Edwin Thumboo's poetic
technique. The work will appeal to scholars with an interest in
linguistic analysis and poetry from the Commonwealth and new
literature, and it can also be used to support courses on literary
stylistics or text linguistics.
