Emphatic style of paragraphemics and syntactic partition (on the material of fiction)

Abstract

The emphatic style of paragraphemics (active non-normative use of font variation and planar text organization) and syntactic partition (breaking or weakening of syntactic links in a sentence) are complex text properties that increase its discreteness in terms of visual organization and syntactic structure, respectively. The autonomy of these two integral properties of the text is due to the fact that their implementation belongs to different aspects of the text. Emphatic style and syntactic partition, when combined within a single text, can strengthen and reinforce each other, which is reflected in the coordination of syntactic structure, graphics (punctuation) and paragraphemics (emphasis, indentation). They are also able to form two relatively independent layers of text organization, which, nevertheless, equally contribute to the fragmentation of the text and increase its discreteness.
