Stylistic analysis of the part of the novel "Rebecca" by Daphne Du Maurier |
Daph e Du Maurier (13 May 1907–19 April 1989) was bor i Lo do . She came from a ar is ic family. Her fa her was he ac or-ma ager Sir Gerald Du Maurier a d she was he gra ddaugh er of carica uris George Du Maurier. O e of her a ces ors was Mary A e Clarke, he mis ress of he duke of York, seco d so of Ki g George III. She la er became he heroi e of Du Maurier's ovel MARY A E (1954). I 1831 Mary A e Clarke's daugh er married Louis-Ma huri Busso Du Maurier. HE GLASS-BLOWERS (1963) was a ovel abou he Busso family. Her ow fa her she por rayed i GERALD (1934). Du Maurier grew up i a lively Lo do household where frie ds like J.M. Barrie a d Edgar Wallace visi ed freque ly. Her u cle, a magazi e edi or, published o e of her s ories whe she was a ee ager a d go her a li erary age . Du Maurier a e ded schools i Lo do , Meudo , Fra ce, a d Paris. I her childhood she was a voracious reader, she was fasci a ed by imagi ary worlds a d developed a male al er ego for herself. Du Maurier also had a male arra or i several ovels. She wro e he firs s ory ‘ he hirs ys’ whe she was jus 13 years old. Her firs book, HE LOVI G SPIRI , appeared i 1931. his ovel played a mai role i her life. O e ma was so impressed wi h his ovel ha he decided o go o Cor wall i order o mee a au hor perso ally – ha ma was Daph e’s fu ure husba d. I was followed by JAMAICA I (1936), a his orical ale of smugglers, which was bough for he movies, a d direc ed by Alfred Hi chcock - la er Hi chcock also used her shor s ory ' he Birds', a e se ale of a ure ur i g o huma i y. FRE CHMA 'S CREEK, a pira e roma ce, was filmed i 1944. MY COUSI RACHEL (1951) was made i o film i 1952. he s ory exami ed how a ma may be ma ipula ed by a woma , who perhaps has murdered her husba d. Besides popular ovels Du Maurier published shor s ories, plays a d biographies, amo g o hers Bra well Bro л's, he bro her of sis ers A e, Charlo e, a d Emily. Her biography of Fra cis Baco , a E glish s a esma i he 1500s a d 1600s, appeared i 1976. Du Maurier's au obiography, GROWI G PAI S, was published whe she was 70. I he la e 1950s, Du Maurier bega o ake i eres i he super a ural. Duri g his period she wro e several s ories, which explored fears a d para oid fa asies, amo g hem ' he Pool', i which a you g girl glimpses a magical world i he woods, bu is la er barred from i , a d ' he Blue Le ses', i which a woma sees everyo e arou d her havi g he head of a a imal. I 1970 appeared her seco d collec io of shor s ories, O AF ER MID IGH , which i cluded 'Do ' Look ow', a ale se i Ve ice, i volvi g a psychic old lady, a ma wi h he six h se se, a d a murderous dwarf. I is difficul o defi e o which li erary curre he crea ivi y of Du Maurier ca be co cer ed. Despi e - or perhaps due o - her imme se populari y, Du Maurier was lo g regarded as a resolu ely middlebrow au hor. However, rece cri icism focusi g o he Freudia a d Ju gia sub ex s of her books has forced a reappraisal of her ca o . Al hough ma y of her ovels rely o he rappi gs of he roma ce, a lo of her bes works ra sce d he ge re o achieve a powerful psychological realism, he o hers ca have he fea ures of fa asy, hriller, his ory ovel a d he ovel of suspe se, mys icism, psychological or social drama.
So her works co sis of he sy hesis of differe ge res a d he eleme almos of every li erary curre . I my perso al opi io he Daph e’s crea ivi y ca be rela ed o ew-roma icism. I 1932 Du Maurier married o Lieu e a Colo el Frederick Ar hur Mo ague Brow i g II, who was k igh ed for his dis i guished service duri g World War II. hey were happily married for hir y- hree years a d had hree childre ; Brow i g died i 1965. Du Maurier was made dame i 1969 for her li erary dis i c io .

How wro g he was, REBECCA became he mos famous of all Daph e Du Maurier’s ovels a d is s ill he o e ha she is bes remembered for.

REBECCA has bee variously described, firs ly as a example of he Ci derella s ory bu wi h he ce ral charac er bei g helped from rags o riches by he older ma who marries her ra her ha he more radi io al help of a fairy godmo her. REBECCA has also bee described as he firs major go hic roma ce i he 20 h ce ury.

I has bee sugges ed ha he you ger woma ’s s ruggle o feel secure i he older ma s love because of he i flue ce of he more sophis ica ed a d successful REBECCA comes from he rela io ship Daph e had wi h her pare s. A o her similar sugges io comes from he fac ha her husba d had bee e gaged o a very beau iful a d self-assured woma before he k ew Daph e a d al hough his rela io ship was called off, Daph e was co sumed wi h jealousy a d doub ed ha he could love her as much as he had loved he o her woma . I seems likely ha his woma may well have bee developed o crea e he charac er of Rebecca.
An analysis of the content and style of the document permits to identify three parts in it: an historical chronicle representing a brief history of Georgia from the 4th cent. B. C. to the 9th cent. A. D., and two redactions of the,,Life of St. Nino“: the short and the extended versions. The extended,,Life of St. Nino“ constitutes a collection of reminiscences. Separate points of Nino's biography are recalled by the author of redaction – Salome Ujarmeli daughter-in-law of the first Christian king of Georgia Mirian, by Nino herself, her pupils and closest associates. The short redaction of the,,Life of St. Nino“ is a very condensed narration in the third person, without accenting the author's presence. Study of the text has shown that at its inclusion in the Chronicle it had been abridged from a complete archetype of a lost redaction of the,,Life of St. Nino“ which was more amenable to abr idgement than the extent long version of complex composition. The compiler of the,,Conversion of Georgia had worked towards an organic fusion of these genetically differing parts; as the result, the monument represents a unified system rather than a mechanical conglomerate of works
