This chapter investigates the continued observation that the prose of Ann Radcliffe and the paintings of Salvator Rosa are similar in style. The proposed model of comparative multimodal stylistic analysis is developed by aligning the meaning making processes employed by different semiotic resources, analysing how meanings are constructed in images and in texts and noting the prevalent choices which distinguish the style of the image or text. Straddling both stylistics and multimodality, this contribution constructs bridging points using concepts such as transitivity and modality in order to trace the transgression of style between the visual and the written modes.

Abstract

This chapter investigates the continued observation that the prose of Ann Radcliffe and the paintings of Salvator Rosa are similar in style. The proposed model of comparative multimodal stylistic analysis is developed by aligning the meaning making processes employed by different semiotic resources, analysing how meanings are constructed in images and in texts and noting the prevalent choices which distinguish the style of the image or text. Straddling both stylistics and multimodality, this contribution constructs bridging points using concepts such as transitivity and modality in order to trace the transgression of style between the visual and the written modes.
