| Abstract | ||
| This research explores the relationship between linguistic structures and socially constructed meaning in a narrative text by employing Halliday's systematic functional grammar. It attempts to reveal the ideology and power relations that underpin a literary text from a semantico -grammatical point of view .This study seeks common ground where systematic grammar and narrative, which have long been considered separate disciplines, can meet. The research includes the explanation of the major process types of the transitivity model and their sub-classifications in addition to the participants' roles that are directly involved in the processes. This is then followed by the application of the transitivity theory to the literary text (expanding Carters' analysis).Results of the analysis show that, by the use of certain process types and participants functions, specific patterns could be separated in a text offering an objective linguistic foundation for understanding written text . | ||
