This analysis of the literary comic 'der Spieler' seeks to identify similarities and differences between the text and its pre-text, exploring whether the comic manifests the intentions of Dostoyevsky's literary model 'The Gambler' and asking whether the stylistic tone of the novel is retained in the comic version. The analysis shows that the authors of the comic manage to retain both Dostoyevsky's intentions and his poetic/narrative techniques, while also creating their own verbal and graphic interpretations.
Phraseolexemes and sentence-like phraseologisms taken from the novel 'Windlichter des Todes. Roman aus Siam' (1933) prove that Alma M. Karlin is rightly known as a linguistically creative author. It can be shown that Karlin often uses patterns of occasionalisms (modifications and neologisms) to support the aesthetic and artistic value of the novel.
Diverse approaches within linguistic-stylistic analysis clarify that the emotions at various text levels are conveyed appropriately in terms of this novel's narrative. This paper focuses on the emotions in the text with regard to the female character Klementine. Based on her speech profile, it can be demonstrated that she deliberately employs all the different aspects of both explicit and implicit conveyance of emotions. From the linguistic-stylistic viewpoint, it is manifest that with respect to her environment, the emotions surrounding this figure include a racial element. The analysis shows that the author is an outstanding narrator capable of creating suspense and depicting emotionally detailed situations. However, the expectations of the reader may not have been completely met.
