Abstract

"in Just-" is one of the best-written poems by American modernism poet e. e. cummings. "in Just-" helps the reader visually see the transformation from reality to illusion and aurally hear the conversion of time and space, and it illustrates its unique visual and aural effects to further the theme of spring. This paper attempts to analyze the linguistic and typographical aspects of this visual poem "in Just-" from the perspective of multimodal discourse analysis, which is developed from the theoretical framework of Halliday's functional linguistics. The aim of the study is to explore possibilities of analyzing and interpreting e. e. cummings' or other authors' visual poems. © 2012 ACADEMY PUBLISHER Manufactured in Finland.
