Interdependence of imagery and context in W.Saroyan 's short stories
The article deals with the role of micro and macro-context in W.Saroyan's prose. Micro-context is treated as the immediate environment of a language unit, where the latter acquires additional textual meaning in the form of associations and connotations as part of a larger context. We believe that the micro and macro-contexts interact and, synergistically, produce a stronger effect upon the reader.
