GRAMMATICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF FREE INDIRECT SPEECH IN JANE AUSTEN’S NOVELS
Keywords:
free indirect speech, grammatical characteristics, grammatical realizationAbstract
The paper analyzes free indirect speech (FID) realizations in the novels written by Jane Austen (1775 – 1817): Sense and Sensibility (1811), Pride and Prejudice (1813), Mansfield Park (1814), Emma (1815), Northanger Abbey (1818), and Persuasion (1818). The analysis aims at comparing the grammatical characteristics of FID used by Austen with the model described in literature in order to prove that there is no reason for treating Austen’s FID as a less-developed form in comparison to the model found in contemporary literature. The analysis has shown that the differences between these two models are negligible in terms of their grammatical realizations.
