Abstract
‘A thing of beauty is joy forever’ was said by Keats. Beauty can be understood as perfection and perfection can be achieved through a particular manner or style. The style in writing is a perfect harmony between thought and expression. Every writer has his own style and way of using words i.e. diction to convey his idea. Tagore and Eliot have mystified the spiritual substance through their choicest words. Arnold observed that Nature herself seems to take the pen out of his hand and write for him with her own power. Arnold stated this because Wordsworth spoke of high things in most glorious style. There is soul in his style. The dejected outburst of Shelley, “I fall upon the thorns of life! I bleed” is the excellent example of blend of emotions and expression which creates a touching impact on readers.
The present paper throws light on the different perspectives of style. As style is the craftsmanship and artistic design of a language where several tools like satire, pathos, bathos, climax as well as rhythm, tone etc. are used and thus the enrichment of style is attained. When there is identification of writer and reader, this is the most sublime state.
