Rekonštrukcia mentálnej dimenzie príbehu v recepcii textovo-obrazových naratívov (na príklade obrazových kníh o. Lavieho a w. Erlbrucha medveď, ktorý tam nebol a s. Tana stratená vec)
Reconstruction of conceptual dimensions of story in reception of text-pictorial narratives (the case of The Bear Who Wasn’t There by O. Lavie and W. Erlbruch; and The Lost Thing by S. Tan)

Summary/Abstract: The paper deals with an interpretative reconstruction of the conceptual dimension of a story which features text and illustration. The analytical-interpretative method was used to analyse the illustrated books The Bear Who Wasn’t There (2016, written by O. Lavie; illustrated by W. Erlbruch) and The Lost Thing (2013, written and illustrated by S. Tan) which may be difficult for the cognitive faculties of a reader to perceive due to the philosophical nature of the narratives. Given the priority and the superiority of the language on the one hand, and the specifics and limits of the illustrated narrativity on the other, the paper outlines the specific functions that the illustration of text-pictorial narratives performs in inferring and determining the characters’ mental states, which are implicit in the text. At the same time, the paper deals with how it leads the reader to grasping the overall sense of the narrative.
