| Abstract | ||
| The research offers a discourse analysis of the interaction level of organization in Synge's one-act play Riders to the Sea. The analysis carried out anchors upon the identification and interpretation of the densities of lexical repetition in the dramatic discourse of the data.The aim sought is to reveal the validity of the hypothesis that the playwright's choice of lexis in a one-act play shows its plot development in addition to the three basic unities of time, place and action. The analysis shows that the identification of the recurrent deictic lexical items referring to spatio – temporal entities and actions leads to the specification of these three entities. Accordingly, the data reveals obvious unities of time, place, and action since the whole of the action takes place within twelve hours in the kitchen of a fisherman's cottage. | ||
