The Rhetoric of Nothingness in A Passage to India
– How we see the word nothing in the novel.
– Use rhetoric by using the Russian formalist approach.
– The main idea is how the narrator successfully imposes something to fill the empty caves and nothing on everything else in the novel.
– The caves are main central of the novel.
– The caves are never empty as they said, PROVE IT >> the Adela’s incident shows there is something inside.
– Caves have thematic and formal device throughout the novel,
– It becomes like a center , a form of the novel, without the caves, the novel is only nothing, so the caves give this brightness to the novel. >> How can we prove that.
