the novel The Old Man and the Sea written by Enerst Hemingway The main objectives are to list, describe and classify attitudinal resources in the discourse and to reveal Ernest Hemingway‟ s attitude towards the characters in the novel The study was carried out through the use of quantitative, qualitative, analytic, synthetic, and descriptive approaches The data were gathered from the entire novel The study was based on Appraisal Theory of Martin and White (2005), which is considered as a new approach to evaluating languages The study registered the occurrence of all types of Attitudinal values, namely Affect, Judgment, and Appreciation Specifically, Judgment occupied the largest proportion, the second highest was Appreciation and Affect was found to occur at the lowest rate Besides, Ernest Hemingway tends to employ more positive Attitudinal values to show determination and strong ambition of human beings about the future The explicit resources were also preferable than the implicit ones, featuring a detailed description of each of human characteristics, nature, and fishing so that it evokes profound meanings about the great dream of the working man From the results, it is hopeful that the study may make some contributions to linguistic theory and help English learners use Attitudinal resources effectively download by : skknchat@gmail.com TABLE OF CONTENTS STATEMENT

STUDY Through time, literature has played a crucial part in human communication because people have used it to fulfill awareness, educational, and art functions and even exchange their viewpoints towards life American Literature has attracted worldwide attention because of its enormous influence Ernest Hemingway, whose works have attracted readers all over the world, is the most influential American writer in the 20th century His works have been translated into many languages and taught at schools The Nobel Laureate of 1954 in the field of Literature, Ernest Hemingway, has made significant contributions in the literary world through his diversified writings Among many great American writers, Hemingway is well-known for his objective and terse prose style Of all the novels Hemingway published in his life, The Old Man and the Sea, which is one of the best works of literature, typically reflects his unique writing style Mellouki and Berriha (2016) denote that the prominent feature in the work is the simplicity and naturalness of the words and expressions To make the writing more interesting, he used Iceberg Theory as a special style which is expressed more on the surface without revealing the theme, because the true meaning may not be obvious in the story Besides, numerous elements made The Old Man and the Sea a masterpiece and attracted the attention worldwide Applying Appraisal Theory developed by Martin and White ( 2005) to study written language is very popular in the field of discourse analysis It has been used as a popular framework for investigating how language is used to evaluate emotions, judge human behaviors and appreciate things or phenomena Attitude, along with Engagement and Graduation, forms the Appraisal download by :

the right The Attitudinal items are signaled under the following conventions: + : “positive attitude” - : “negative attitude” The excerpt at the end of the story tells the story of an old man Santiago chasing and catching a swordfish … The sun was rising for the third time since he had put to sea when the fish started [- Affect, insecurity, observed] to circle He could not [Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] see by the slant of the line that the fish was circling It was too early for that He just felt a faint slackening [Appreciation, Reaction, Explicit] of the pressure of the line and be commenced to pull on it gently [Appreciation, Reaction, Explicit] with his right hand It tightened [+ Appreciation, Reaction, Explicit], as always, but just when he reached the point where it would break, line began to come in He slipped his shoulders and head from under the line and began to pull in line steadily and gently [+ Appreciation, Reaction, Explicit] He used both of his hands in a swinging motion and tried to the pulling as much as he could [+ Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] with his body and his[+ Judgment, Propriety, Explicit] legs His old legs and shoulders pivoted with the swinging of the pulling [- Apreciation, valuation, Implicit] "It is a very big circle [+ Appreciation, Composition] " he said "But he is circling." Then the line would not come in any more and he held it until he saw the drops jumping from it in the sun Then it started out and the old [Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] man knelt down and let it go grudgingly back download by : skknchat@gmail.com PL-2 into the dark water "He is making the far part of his circle now," he said I must [+ Judgment, Propriety, Explicit] hold all I can [+ Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] , he thought The strain will [+ Judgment, tenacity, Explicit] shorten his circle each time Perhaps in an hour I will [+ Judgment, tenacity, Explicit] see him Now I must [+ Judgment, Propriety, Explicit] convince him and then I must [+ Judgment, Propriety, Explicit] kill him But the fish kept on circling slowly [- Appreciation, Reaction] and the old [- Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] man was wet with sweat and tired deep [- Appreciation, Composition] into his bones two hours later But the circles were much shorter [- Appreciation, Composition] now and from the way the line slanted he could [+ Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] tell the fish had risen steadily[+ Appreciation, Reaction, Explicit] while he swam For an hour the old [- Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] man had been seeing black spots before his eyes and the sweat salted his eyes and salted the cut over his eye and on his forehead He was not afraid [- Affect, security, observed] of the black spots They were normal [+ Judgment, normality, explicit] at the tension that he was pulling on the line Twice, though, he had felt faint and dizzy and that had worried [-Affect, unhappiness, observed] him "I could not [Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] fail myself and die on a fish like this," he said "Now that I have him coming so beautifully, [+Appreciation, Reaction, Explicit] God help me endure I'll [+ Judgment, Tenacity] say a hundred Our Fathers and a hundred Hail Marys But I cannot say them now Consider them said, he thought I'll[+Judgment, Tenacity] say them later Just then he felt a sudden [+Appreciation, Reaction, Explicit] banging and jerking on the line he held with his two hands It was sharp and hardfeeling and heavy [- Appreciation, Composition] He is hitting the wire download by : skknchat@gmail.com PL-3 leader with his spear, be thought That was bound to come He had to that It may make him jump though and I would rather he stayed circling now The jumps were necessary[+ Appreciation, Valuation] for him to take air But after that each one can [+ Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] widen the opening of the hook wound and he can [+ Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] throw the hook."Don't jump, fish," he said "Don't jump." The fish hit the wire several times more and each time he shook his head the old[- Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] man gave up a little line I must hold his pain where it is, he thought Mine does not matter I can [+Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] control mine But his pain could [+ Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] drive him mad After a while the fish stopped beating at the wire and started [- Affect, insecurity, observed] circling slowly [- Appreciation, Reaction] again The old[- Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] man was gaining line steadily [+ Appreciation, Reaction, Explicit]now But he felt faint again He lifted some sea water with his left hand and put it on his head Then he put more on and rubbed the back of his neck "I have no cramps," he said "He'll [+Judgment, Tenacity] be up soon and I can [+ Judgment, capacity]last You have to last Don't even speak of it." He kneeled against the bow and, for a moment, slipped the line over his back again I'll[+Judgment, Tenacity] rest now while he goes out on the circle and then stand up and work on him when he comes in, he decided It was a great [+ Appreciation, reaction] temptation to rest in the bow and let the fish make one circle by himself without recovering any line But when the strain showed the fish had turned to come toward the boat, the old man[- Judgment, Normality, Explicit] rose to his feet and started [- Affect, insecurity, observed] the pivoting and the weaving pulling that brought in all the line he gained I'm tireder than I have ever been, [- Affect, download by : skknchat@gmail.com PL-4 Unhappiness, Authorial] he thought, and now the trade wind is rising But that will [+ Judgment, tenacity] be good [+Judgment, propriety, explicit] to take him in with I need that badly [- Appreciation, Reaction] "I'll[+Judgment, Tenacity] rest on the next turn as he goes out," he said "I feel much better [+ Judgment, propriety, explicit] Then in two or three turns more I will [+ Judgment, tenacity] have him." His straw hat was far on the back of his head and he sank down into the bow with the pull of the line as he felt the fish turn You work now, fish, he thought I'll [+Judgment, Tenacity] take you at the turn.The sea had risen considerably But it was a fair-weather breeze and he had to have it to get home "I'll [+Judgment, Tenacity] just steer south and west," he said "A man is never lost at sea and it is a long [- Appreciation, Composition ] island." It was on the third turn that he saw the fish first He saw him first as a dark shadow that took so long [- Appreciation, Composition ] to pass under theboat that he could not [- Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] believe [+ Affect, security, observed] its length "No," he said "He can't [- Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] be that big." [+ Appreciation, Composition] But he was that big [+ Appreciation, Composition] and at the end of this circle he came to the surface only thirty yards away and the man saw his tail out of water It was higher than a big [+ Appreciation, Composition] scythe blade and a very pale lavender above the dark blue water It raked back and as the fish swam just below the surface, the old [- Judgment, Capacity, Explicit]man could [+ Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] see his huge [+ [+ Appreciation, Composition ] bulk and the purple stripes that banded him His dorsal fin was down and his huge [+ Appreciation, Reaction] pectorals were download by : skknchat@gmail.com PL-5 spread wide On this circle the old [- Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] man could [+ Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] see the fish's eye and the two gray sucking fish that swain around him Sometimes they attached themselves to him Sometimes they darted off Sometimes they would swim easily [+ Appreciation, Reaction, Explicit] in his shadow They were each over three feet long and when they swam fast they lashed their whole bodies like eels [+ Appreciation, Composition, Implicit] The old man was sweating now but from something else besides the sun [- Judgment, Capacity, Implicit] On each calm placid turn the fish made he was gaining line and he was sure[+ Affect, security, observed] that in two turns more he would have a chance to get the harpoon in But I must [+ Judgment, Propriety, Explicit] get him close, close, close, he thought I mustn't try for the head I must[+ Judgment, Propriety, Explicit] get the heart "Be calm and strong [+ Judgment, Normality, Explicit], old man[Judgment, Normality, Explicit]," he said On the next circle the fish's beck was out but he was a little too far from the boat On the next circle he was still too far away but he was higher out of water and the old [- Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] man was sure [+ Affect, Security, Observed] that by gaining some more line he could [+ Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] have him alongside He had rigged his harpoon long [- Appreciation, Composition ] before and its coil of light rope was in a round basket and the end was made fast [+Appreciation, Composition, Explicit] to the bitt in the bow The fish was coming in on his circle now calm and beautiful looking [+ Appreciation, Reaction, Explicit] And only his great [+ Appreciation, Valuation] tail moving The old [- Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] man pulled download by : skknchat@gmail.com PL-6 on him all that he could [+ Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] to bring him closer For just a moment the fish turned a little on his side Then he straightened himself and began another circle."I moved him," the old [Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] man said "I moved him then."He felt faint again now but he held on the great [+ Appreciation, Valuation, Explicit] fish all the strain that he could [- Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] I moved him, he thought Maybe this time I can [+ Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] get him over Pull, hands, he thought Hold up, legs Last for me, head Last for me You never went This time I'll [+Judgment, Tenacity] pull him over But when he put all of his effort on, starting it well [+ Appreciation, Reaction, Explicit] out before the fish came alongside and pulling with all his strength, the fish pulled part way over and then righted himself and swam away "Fish," the old [- Judgment, Normality, Explicit] man said "Fish, you are going to have to die anyway Do you have to kill me too?" That way nothing is accomplished [- Appreciation, Reaction, Explicit] he thought His mouth was too dry [-Appreciation, reaction, Explicit]to speak but he could not [- Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] reach for the water now I must [+ Judgment, Propriety, Explicit] get him alongside this time, he thought I am not good [-Judgment, propriety, explicit] for many more turns Yes you are [-Judgment, propriety, explicit], he told himself You're good [Judgment, propriety, explicit] for ever On the next turn, he nearly had him But again the fish righted himself and swam slowly away.[-Appreciation, Reaction] You are killing me, fish [-Affect, Dissatisfaction, oberved] the old [- Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] man thought But you have a right to download by : skknchat@gmail.com PL-7 Never have I seen a greater or more beautiful, or a calmer or more noble thing than you, brother [+ Appreciation, Reaction, Implicit ] Come on and kill me I not care who kills who [+ Judgment, Tenacity, Implicit] Now you are getting confused [-Affect, unhappiness, observed] in the head, he thought You must keep your head dear Keep your head clear [+ Appreciation, Composition, Explicit] and know how to suffer like a man.[Judgment, Capacity, Implicit] Or a fish, he thought "Clear up, head," he said in a voice he could hardly hear [- Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] "Clear up." [+ Appreciation, Reaction, Explicit] Twice more it was the same on the turns I not know, the old[- Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] man thought He had been on the point of feeling himself go each time I not know But I will[+ Judgment, tenacity] try it once more He tried it once more and he felt himself going when he turned the fish.The fish righted himself and swam off again slowly [+Appreciation, Reaction] with the great[+ Appreciation, Valuation] tail weaving in the air I'll [+Judgment, Tenacity] try it again, the old [- Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] man promised, although his hands were mushy [+Appreciation, Composition, Explicit] now and he could only see well in flashes [+ Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] He tried it again and it was the same So he thought, and he felt himself going before he started[- Affect, insecurity, observed].; I will [+ Judgment, tenacity] try it once again He took all his pain and what was left of his strength and his long[- Appreciation, Composition ] gone pride and he put it against the fish's agony and the fish came over onto his side and swam gently on his side, his bill almost touching the planking of the skiff and started [- Affect, insecurity, observed] to pass download by : skknchat@gmail.com PL-8 the boat, long, deep, wide, silver and barred with purple and interminable [- Appreciation, Composition ] in the water The old man dropped the line and put his foot on it and lifted the harpoon as high as he could [+Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] and drove it down with all his strength, and more strength he had just summoned [+Judgment, Capacity, Explicit], into the fish's side just behind the great [+ Appreciation, Valuation] chest fin that rose high in the air to the altitude of the man's chest He felt the iron go in and he leaned on it and drove it further and then pushed all his weight after it Then the fish came alive, with his death in him, and rose high out of the water showing all his great length and width and all his power and his beauty [+ Appreciation, Reaction] He seemed to hang in the air above the old man in the skiff.Then he fell into the water with a crash that sent spray over the old man and over all of the skiff The old man felt faint and sick [- Judgment, Capacity] and he could not [+ Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] see well [+ Appreciation, Reaction, Explicit] But he cleared the harpoon line and let it run slowly [- Appreciation, Reaction, Explicit] through his raw hands and, when he could [+ Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] see, he saw the fish was on his back with his silver belly up The shaft of the harpoon was projecting at an angle from the fish's shoulder and the sea was discolouring with the red of the blood from his heart First it was dark as a shoal in the blue water that was more than a mile deep [- Appreciation, Composition, Explicit] Then it spread like a cloud [+ Appreciation, Reaction, Explicit] The fish was silvery and still and floated with the waves [+ Appreaction, Reaction, Explicit] The old man looked carefully[+ Judgment, tenacity, explicit] in the glimpse of vision that he had Then he took two turns of the harpoon line around the bitt in the bow and hid his head on his hands download by : skknchat@gmail.com PL-9 "Keep my head dear," he said against the wood of the bow "I am a tired old man[- Affect, Unhappiness, Authorial] But I have killed this fish which is my brother and now I must the slave work."[+ Judgment, Propriety] Now I must [+ Judgment, Propriety, Explicit] prepare the nooses and the rope to lash him alongside, he thought Even if we were two and swamped her to load him and bailed her out, this skiff would never hold him I must [+ Judgment, Propriety, Explicit] prepare everything, then bring him in and lash him well [+ Appreciation, Reaction, Explicit] and step the mast and set sail for home He started [- Affect, insecurity, observed] to pull the fish in to have him alongside so that he could [+ Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] pass a line through his gills and out his mouth and make his head fast [+ Appreciation, Composition] alongside the bow I want [+Affect, inclination, authorial] to see him, he thought, and to touch and to feel him He is my fortune[+Judgment, Normality], he thought But that is not why I wish[+Affect, Inclination, Authorial] to feel him I think I felt his heart, he thought When I pushed on the harpoon shaft the second time Bring him in now and make him fast [+ Appreciation, Composition] and get the noose around his tail and another around his middle to bind him to the skiff "Get to work, old man[- Judgment, Normality, Explicit]," he said He took a very small [- Appreciation, Composition, Explicit] drink of the water "There is very much slave work to be done now that the fight is over." He looked up at the sky and then out to his fish He looked at the sun carefully [+ Judgment, tenacity, explicit] It is not much more than noon, he thought And the trade wind is rising The lines all mean nothing now.[- Appreciation, Valuation, Explicit] The boy and I will [+ Judgment, tenacity] splice them when we are home "Come on, fish," he said But the fish did not come download by : skknchat@gmail.com PL-10 Instead he lay there wallowing now in the seas and the old man[Judgment, Normality, Explicit] pulled the skiff upon to him When he was even with him and had the fish's head against the bow he could not [Judgment, Capacity, Explicit] believe [+Affect, security, observed] his size But he untied the harpoon rope from the bitt, passed it through the fish's gills and out his jaws, made a turn around his sword then passed the rope through the other gill, made another turn around the bill and knotted the double rope and made it fast [+ Appreciation, Composition] to the bitt in the bow He cut the rope then and went astern to noose the tail The fish had turned silver from his original [+Appreciation, Valuation] purple and silver, and the stripes showed the same pale violet colour as his tail They were wider than a man's hand with his fingers spread and the fish's eye looked as detached as the mirrors in a periscope or as a saint in a procession "It was the only way to kill him," the old [- Judgment, Normality, Explicit]man said He was feeling better [+ Judgment, propriety, explicit] since the water and he knew he would not[+ Judgment, tenacity, explicit] go away and his head was clear [+ Appreciation, Composition, Explicit] He's over fifteen hundred pounds the way he is, he thought, much more If he dresses out two-thirds of that at thirty cents a pound?
