ABSTRACT
As a central issue in stylistics, foregrounding, which can be achieved by deviation and overregularity at every linguistic level, can give readers more innovative and ingenious perspective on appreciation of text. W. B. Yeats’ Leda and the Swan is a poem deserving close reading and attention. The analysis from sound patterning, meter and rhythm, verbal repetition endows the poem with some novel and new aesthetic significance.
KEYWORDS
