Abstract

The analysis of Langston Hughes’ poetic works in a linguistic context is utmost interesting. In this regard, attention is drawn to the stylistic features of the transmission of symbolism and the phonological rhetoric. Hughes's poems are full of examples of symbolism that reach the reader through metaphorical as artistic techniques.Although Langston Hughes's poetic work is full of examples of symbolisms, in this study we will focus only on the symbol of "river", which is found in many of the poet's works. In addition, the second task of the research is the phonetic analysis of the rhythms of jazz and blues in the poems, which gives amazing phonological tones and sound to the poems and distinguishes this style from other literary styles.
