ANALYSIS OF COHESION AND COHERENCE IN IN THE SHADOW OF NO TOWERS: A GRAPHIC NOVEL BY ART SPIEGELMAN

Tatiana MELNICHUK

Cohesion and coherence are two inherent textual characteristics that together form the connectedness of the text, thus creating a meaningful, integral and complete text. The graphic novel, being a polycode text, also possesses the category of connectedness. However, the heterogeneous verbal-visual structure of the graphic novel determines certain distinctive aspects of the realization of the category of connectedness. The present article focuses on the linguistic and non-linguistic devices that are used to form cohesion and coherence of a graphic novel.

Keywords: cohesion, coherence, graphic novel, nonverbal text components.
