graphological variation

By Chloe 2020-12-29 305次浏览 课时72

The first example in graphological variation is easy to understand, when the letters are merged together with no blanks, it gives a special effect that pigeons are shot without any break. A similar expression can be found in Niyi Osundare's peom, in which the word "longer" occupies two lines, and the word "yawn" four lines. 

Long

er

the

y

a

w

n

of

the

The second example is not a poem, but sentences in which three different words/phrases are used to express the same meaning "to die", so they should still be regarded as lexical variations. I am not sure if it belongs to the category of "graphological variation", since the semantic meanings of these lexical iterms, rather than their length or arrangement are where the stylistic differences come from. 

It reminds me of a line in Zhu Ziqing's prose "Transient Days". 在逃去如飞的日子里,在千门万户的世界里的我能做些什么呢?只有徘徊罢了,只有匆匆罢了. There is an incremental increase in sentence length (nine words and seventeen words respectively), and a rise in tone in the first question(逃2去4如2飞1、千1门2万4户4), followed by an emphasized verb "做"(4) and a question marker the neutral tone 呢(0). The answer is composed of two short paralleled structures with only two content words in each(徘徊、匆匆). Apart from the semantic meaning of this text, the author is questioning deeply and his emotion is becoming rather intense at first, but without finding an answer, he had to end his search with a sigh.
