The Multimodal Analysis of War And Peace
Abstract
War And Peace, originally a most praised and studied masterpiece in the history of Western Literature, nowadays represents a literary-artistic phenomena far more than the text composed by Tolstoy. Utilising the multimodal discourse analysis, now the mainstream of deconstruction method of contemporary linguistics and semiotics research, this thesis analyses the translations and multimedia adaptions to cover the shortages of previous text studies and simultaneously analyses the application of multimodal discourse in the adaptation and dissemination of literary works in a two-way perspective.References
