• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

The notion of prose poeticalness was first formulated by the German scientist Wolf Schmid. Over the last 20 years few investigations in this sphere have been made, though the word 'poetical' is often applied to different types of texts.This book deals with the major devices of poeticalness of prose in the short stories of Dylan Thomas and Kate Chopin.Though different in style, their stories are united by rich imagery, sound repetitions, emotiveness and psychologism. Prose poeticalness is considered in semantic, syntactic and pragmatic aspects, thus the research becomes comprehensive. The conceptual character of tropes in stylistic convergeces is emphasized.The investigation can be interesting for scholars and students who specialize in stylistics, poetics, text interpretation, and all those who enjoy reading beautiful prose, who obtain pleasure from reading (R. Barthes).
