Interaction between text and reader is a prominent concern in stylistics. This paper focusses on interactions among stylistic processes and subconscious microcognitive processes that generate changes to narrative and interpretation during reading. Drawing on process philosophy and recent neuroscientific research, I articulate this dynamism through analysis of a brief narrative moment from each of The.PowerBook by Jeanette Winterson and Oryx and Crake by Margaret Atwood. I argue that high densities of stylistic and microcognitive perturbations lead to frequent narrative and interpretive changes in the two moments. The analyses reinforce portrayals of reading as intensely complex, dynamic and changeable. Complexity, dynamism and mutability also characterise the stylistic changes in the two narrative moments. This paper advocates greater attention to the role of volatile stylistic and cognitive microdynamics in shaping the reading of prose fiction.

珍妮特·温特森 (Jeanette Winterson) 的 The.PowerBook 和玛格丽特·阿特伍德 (Margaret Atwood) 的 Oryx 和 Crake 中的文学动态

文本和读者之间的交互是文体中的一个突出问题。本文重点关注文体过程和潜意识微观认知过程之间的相互作用,这些过程在阅读过程中会产生叙事和解释的变化。借鉴过程哲学和最近的神经科学研究,我通过分析珍妮特·温特森 (Jeanette Winterson) 和奥瑞克斯( Oryx) 和克雷克 (Crack通过玛格丽特阿特伍德。我认为,文体和微观认知扰动的高密度导致了这两个时刻频繁的叙述和解释变化。这些分析强化了对阅读极其复杂、动态和多变的描述。复杂性、动态性和可变性也是两个叙事时刻风格变化的特征。本文主张更多地关注易变的文体和认知微观动力学在塑造散文小说阅读中的作用。
