“…This narrative section was taken because it represents the author's support for feminist ideology, which suggests that women should be set free from the obligation to get married and to have a family. Then the narrative was analyzed relation to its mode of narration or types of narrator (Al-Alami, 2019; Simpson, 2004) and its types of narration (Neary, 2014). The study of the mode of narration and types of narration revealed how Ratih Kumala made use of point of view in her fiction to communicate her world view and value systems.…”

“…The second type of narrator takes you as its main character, making the readers feel that they themselves are the narrator (Al-Alami, 2019: In addition to Fowler-and-Uspensky's model of point of view and Simpson's mode of narration or Al-Alami's types of narrator, point of view in a narrative fiction needs to be investigated in terms of the types of narration. Narration, according to Uspensky, is categorized into internal and external types (in Neary, 2014), in which the former concerns "narration restricted to 'subjective viewpoint' of a particular character in the narrative", while the latter "is ostensibly 'objective' and can include commentary on the characters, actions and events depicted in the narrative" (Neary, 2014: 179).…”

This article concerns point of view and the ideology of feminism in Ratih Kumala’s novel Tabula Rasa. Point of view is defined with reference to the angle of telling a narrative, whereas feminism is the belief that women and other minority groups suffer from violence, repression, and discrimination. Here, point of view is analyzed based on three different classifications, i.e. Fowler-Uspensky model, Simpson’s mode of narration or Al-Alami’s types of narrators, and Uspensky’s types of narration. The result suggests that Ratih Kumala uses first and third person points of view and internal type of narration to communicate her support for feminism.

The article proposes a pragmatic-stylistic analysis of modality and ideology in Abiezer Coppes Coppes Return to the Wayes of Truth(1651), a dramatic recantation written in prison by one of the most (in-)famous radical thinkers of England during the Interregnum. As the analysis will try to show, the peculiar features of this text and its complex communicative strategies call for a wider variety of methodological tools, complementing the application of code-driven models for the analysis of modality with more use-driven pragmatic and stylistic frameworks. In Coppes text, textual and contextual elements are as fundamental as code and grammatical aspects to convey evaluation, and they trigger a very sly conflict between overt and covert meanings, producing interstitial, ironical, even subversive reading possibilities, thus demonstrating how modality is inextricably tied to a variety of linguistic devices to produce a multifaceted message.

Drawing from both German and Polish linguistic and literary perspectives, the article attempts to examine genre changes within the genre pattern of the novel and decide whether Olga Tokarczuk’s Flights, described by the author herself as a novel, should be attributed to this genre. We assume that linguistic and literary tools will allow us to determine the most characteristic features of contemporary novel productions to decide on the nature of changes taking place within the studied genre. Looking at Tokarczuk’s work not through the prism of a single genre but, following Maria Wojtak, Kirsten Adamzik or Ulla Fix, from the perspective of inter-genre relations, allows not only to conclude that the analyzed material is located on the fringes of the genre pattern of the novel but also to see other inter-textual dependencies and consider the text under study as a genre in the form of a collection.
