Multimodálny štýl a porozumenie textu
Multimodal style and text comprehension

Summary/Abstract: Despite the fact that communication usually takes place on the basis of several modes, in the past the stylistics was mainly focused logocentrically, and multimodality was only discussed in linguistics in the 1990s. Nowadays, a specific picture-textual narrative, or a literary work, that is built on several semiotic models affecting the meaning and the sense of the story, begins to appear more often in literature for children and youth. As a result, the literary style, which is the subject of analyzes of literary science, criticism and linguistics, especially stylistics as a science of communication, acquires new attributes. Digitization and electronic transmission of information cause changes in the quality and quantity of the modes used in communication in general, and the participation in the multimodal way of communication increases. In the study, we deal with the definition of multimodality and the characteristics of the multimodal style of non-fiction literature, which are the starting points for research into the multimodal text comprehension at junior school age.
