Summary/Abstract: Jan Beran's travel literary text Jedina is characterized by extremely expressive speech strategies, which multiply the influence on rhythm, the semantic-compositional structure, and especially the lyrical aspects of creating his travelogue contents. The aim of the paper is to investigate the horizontal spatial relationships of continuity and linearity in the constitution of the semantic-composition structure of Beran's travelogue and vertical relationships that include poetic/lyrical visualization of space based on a psychological point of view (perspective). In accordance with the basic principles of stylistics of the text, the unity of horizontal and vertical semantic-compositional relations will be considered as the basis of the stylistic expressiveness of the text. The paper investigates the emotionally-expressive and figurative linguistic means as the main carriers of the lyrical established expression of the semantic-compositional content of Beran's travelogue text Jedina.
