Abstract: | As one of the foremost figures of the 20 th century literature, William Butler Yeats has created lots of famous poems, including the poem When You Are Old, which expresses his love to Maud Gonne and his understanding of love. Stylistics provides us a new perspective to analyze and understand poems. This thesis just applies the theory of stylistics and analyzes the poem from phonological, lexical, syntactic/grammatical and semantic features. After analyzing it word by word and line by line, readers can feel the poet's strong emotions more easily and profoundly. |
