This study helps in understanding the meaning of the poem and the style of the author used in this piece. Through the use of different figures of speech, the poet creatively explains the part where it explores the significance of life and how this turned upside down. Thus, \"A DREAM WITHIN A DREAM\" is a poem that shows the poet's insights about life and death and its cyclical relationship, the feelings of loss and grief, and the reconciliation.  \nKeywords—style; stylistics; phonological level; morphological level; lexical-syntactical level  \n1. INTRODUCTION  \nStyle as the basic feature used in analyzing a text gives the unique characteristics of the poet as a deviation from the norm. Thus, style makes a masterpiece unique from other poems written beforehand. This shows how a poet can make his/her piece creatively by conveying the message which depends on further interpretations ofthe readers.  \nMoreover, Murtaza & Qasmi (2013) said that style is awriter's mode of expression, a way of putting his conceptions into words. It involves a long list of choices such as the choice of lexical items, the use of tropes and figures of speech, phrasal and syntactic structures, and the shape of paragraphs. These choices make the writer an individual as clearly discernible and differentiable as he isin the frequency and quality of his voice and his behavioral idiosyncrasies.  \nStyle chiefly refers to what kind of language a writer is using, and it is used in discussion of literature. In general terms, we express prose and poetry linguistically. What the speaker says is the style itself. In general terms, the word style is not a simple feature of the language, but rather a complex one. How one uses the language in a particular situation, is also embodied in style. Style is generally used for a specific purpose by a person (Kumar, 2022) .  \nFurther, different scholars defined stylistics as an analysis. Stylistics is an elusive and slippery topic. Every contribution to the vast and multifaceted discipline of literary studies will involve an engagement with style (Bradford, 2013). Thus,“Stylistics is a branch of linguistics which investigates the entire system of expressive resources available in a particular language”,(Zhukovska, 2010) .  \nStylistics defines, studies, and analyses style objectively and technically applying the methodology of  \nlinguistics (Murtaza & Qasmi, 2013) . Since literature is constructed through language, stylistics a branch of linguistics, acts as a link between the two complementary disciplines of linguistics and literature. Through the process of stylistically analyzing a text, it becomes easier to analyze text within a linguistic framework. It was abilities the development of critical appreciation and interpretative skills as well as reading comprehension (Rana, 2018) .  \n2. LEVELS OF STYLISTICS ANALYSIS  \nStylistics analysis contains the four levels in understanding the text. These levels are phonological level, morphological level, graphological level, and lexicalsyntactical level of analysis.  \n2.1 Phonological Level  \nThis deals with the study of sound patterns of a given language, rules of pronunciation, the rhyming scheme, and utterance of the words in the sentence. Phonological devices are rhyme elements, alliteration, consonance, and assonance (Manuel, 2017) .  \n2.2 Graphological Level  \nThis level focuses on the conventions of writing which include: punctuation marks, phrasing, orthography, spacing, etc. Graphology or handwriti","cbCaiejDWd87CNCp","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiejDWd87CNCp","pdf",539954,1,5,"English","en",105,"# Introduction\n# Levels of Stylistics Analysis\n## Phonological Level\n## Graphological Level\n## Morphological Level\n## Lexical-syntactical Level\n# Objective of the Study\n# Methodology","[{\"question\":\"What poem is analyzed in this stylistics study?\",\"answer\":\"The study analyzes Edgar Allan Poe’s poem “A Dream Within a Dream.”\"},{\"question\":\"Which four levels of stylistics analysis are used?\",\"answer\":\"The four levels of stylistics analysis used are phonological, morphological, graphological, and lexical-syntactical.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the main objective of the study?\",\"answer\":\"The study aims to analyze how the poem’s meaning and the author’s style emerge through the four stylistics levels.\"}]","Stylistics Analysis - A Dream Within a Dream | PDF",1787868331,8,{"code":4,"msg":31,"data":32},"ok",{"site_id":24,"language":23,"slug":33,"title":13,"keywords":34,"description":14,"schema_data":35,"social_meta":86,"head_meta":88,"extra_data":90,"updated_unix":28},"stylistics-analysis-a-dream-within-a-dream","",{"@graph":36,"@context":85},[37,53,68],{"@type":38,"itemListElement":39},"BreadcrumbList",[40,44,47,50],{"item":41,"name":42,"@type":43,"position":20},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":45,"name":46,"@type":43,"position":11},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",{"item":48,"name":12,"@type":43,"position":49},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/literature/",3,{"item":51,"name":13,"@type":43,"position":52},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/stylistics-analysis-a-dream-within-a-dream/152925/",4,{"url":51,"name":13,"@type":54,"author":55,"headline":13,"publisher":57,"fileFormat":60,"inLanguage":23,"description":14,"dateModified":61,"datePublished":62,"encodingFormat":60,"isAccessibleForFree":63,"interactionStatistic":64},"DigitalDocument",{"name":9,"@type":56},"Person",{"url":41,"name":58,"@type":59},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-09-07","2026-08-27",true,{"@type":65,"interactionType":66,"userInteractionCount":11},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":67},"ViewAction",{"@type":69,"mainEntity":70},"FAQPage",[71,77,81],{"name":72,"@type":73,"acceptedAnswer":74},"What poem is analyzed in this stylistics study?","Question",{"text":75,"@type":76},"The study analyzes Edgar Allan Poe’s poem “A Dream Within a Dream.”","Answer",{"name":78,"@type":73,"acceptedAnswer":79},"Which four levels of stylistics analysis are used?",{"text":80,"@type":76},"The four levels of stylistics analysis used are phonological, morphological, graphological, and lexical-syntactical.",{"name":82,"@type":73,"acceptedAnswer":83},"What is the main objective of the study?",{"text":84,"@type":76},"The study aims to analyze how the poem’s meaning and the author’s style emerge through the four stylistics levels.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":51,"og:type":87,"og:title":13,"og:site_name":58,"og:description":14},"article",{"robots":89,"canonical":51},"index,follow",{"doc_id":7,"site_id":24},{"code":4,"msg":5,"data":92},[93,97,100,104,108,113,118,122,127,130,134],{"id":20,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":94,"show_sort_weight":95,"slug":96},"Story & Novel",90,"story-novel",{"id":11,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":12,"show_sort_weight":98,"slug":99},80,"literature",{"id":52,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":101,"show_sort_weight":102,"slug":103},"Exam",70,"exam",{"id":21,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":105,"show_sort_weight":106,"slug":107},"Comic",60,"comic",{"id":109,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":110,"show_sort_weight":111,"slug":112},6,"Technology",50,"technology",{"id":114,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":115,"show_sort_weight":116,"slug":117},7,"Healthcare",40,"healthcare",{"id":29,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":119,"show_sort_weight":120,"slug":121},"Research & Report",30,"research-report",{"id":123,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":124,"show_sort_weight":125,"slug":126},9,"Religion & Spirituality",20,"religion-spirituality",{"id":125,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":128,"show_sort_weight":125,"slug":129},"World Cup","world-cup",{"id":131,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":132,"show_sort_weight":131,"slug":133},10,"Lifestyle","lifestyle",{"id":135,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":46,"category_name":136,"show_sort_weight":21,"slug":137},19,"General","general"]
