Taking up this aspect of the aesthetic tradition, the paper intends to reveal what may be referred to as “the visual qualities of the verbal” but also to demonstrate the fact that both artifacts and modes of their perception may be influenced by intermedia communication. The precondition of such an inquiry is discerning between verbal simulation of visual representation, and quasi-visual effects of verbal representation in reception; other sensorial aspects are taken into account as well. The paper delivers several exemplifications of representational modes in fiction that possibly result in visualisation or quasi-sensorial experience of the reader.
