Victorian Word-painting and Narrative: Toward the Blending of GenresUMI Research Press, 1987 - Počet stran: 150 This study establishes the distinctive features of Victorian word-painting in the works of Charles Dickens and Alfred, Lord Tennyson and suggests ways in which word-painting contributes to the attrition of narrative and the blending of the genres of prose and poetry in some "hybrid" works of Modernist and post-Modernist literature. Word-painting is a term used here to refer to extended passages of visually-oriented description that are composed with attention to framing devices, recurrent iconographic motifs, light, color, composition of volumes in space and a carefully-established, consistent perspective. |
