Abstract

This study aims to demonstrate how a poem can be analyzed through various stylistic levels to enhance its understanding. The poem has been examined from five key stylistic levels: phonological, graphological, semantic, morphological, and lexical. By analyzing these levels, the study reveals hidden and unique features of the poem, including the poet's distinctive style, use of punctuation, and thematic depth. The analysis emphasizes how stylistic choices contribute to the presentation of the central themes of beauty and truth, which are portrayed as intimately connected. Through symbolic language and vivid imagery, the poet creates powerful visual effects that deeply engage the reader. This stylistic examination strongly argues for the necessity of such an approach in literary analysis, as it allows readers to gain deeper insight into the poem's meaning, structure, and artistic expression, thereby enhancing the understanding of the poem's unique features.
