Syntactic Realizations of the Presentation Scale in Academic Prose and in Fiction.

Original language description

The present paper considers the possibility of correlation between the choice of a syntactic structure implementing the presentation scale and the type of text in which the choice is made. Specifically, the styles of academic prose and fiction are compared regarding the incidence of types of structures implementing the presentation scale. Existential construction, the type employed most readily in both types of texts, occurred more frequently in texts of academic prose. Rhematic subject in the initial position appeared almost twice as frequently in texts of fiction and the syntactic structure involving inversion appeared to be characteristic of the functional style as well. On the other hand, the structure comprising a locative subject was more frequently employed in texts of academic prose.
