Abstract

Abstract

The ongoing study is concerned with employing a critical discourse analysis to investigate Ernest Hemingway's "The old Man and the Sea" Correspond, the research has collected five texts from the novella. The researcher has adopted Norman Fair cllough's three - dimensional model (2001) which consists of three major tents: the textual level, the discourse practice analysis level together with the social analysis level. The study has come to the conclusion that "The Old Man and the Sea " is very rich as critical discourse analysis is concerned. Besides, the study shows that the writer uses simple words and straightforward sentence structures. Consequently, Hemingway's language is clear and easy to understand by the readers. On the discourse practice analysis, the study expresses that the narrator uses subtle techniques as sophisticated patterns and repeated words and sentence structures in order to assert specific cultural and religious rituals. Likewise, the social analysis of the study suggests that Hemingway infers a great deal about Cuba's cultural, economic, and social circumstances at that time
