SUBJECT-OBJECT CORRELATION IN THE EKPHRASIS EPISODES IN FICTION

Journal Title: Мова - Year 2014, Vol 0, Issue 21

Abstract

The article is devoted to the semantic roles and their verbal representation in the ekphrasis episodes which are defined as the perception scenes of the painting being the object of observation. The semantic roles in reality and fiction do not completely coincide. The agentative force of the object greatly increases at the account of personification and metamorphosis of the image. The phenomenon of ekphrasis is a sort of connecting agent between a verbal narration and a visual art object, therefore the ekphrasis consists in a text created at the confluence of two different artistic systems and has a distinctive feature namely performance of the descriptive function. Such performance results in transmission of emotional and stylistic component of an artistic image. The descriptive force of the ekphrasis facilitates better transmission of verbal information related to works of visual art to the readers. Of special interest is an emotional aspect of percept’s comprehension of artistic canvas when the objects described on it get a capability to revive on a lifeless linen and to influence the people around in an effective manner. The same or maximum approximate influence is seemingly to be contained in the ekphrasis itself which is responsible for a qualitative transmission of a visual component along the route «a visual object — a percept — a text object — a reader». The ekphrasis being a widespread instrument for description of visual perceivable artistic objects still remains to be an underinvestigated phenomenon.
