Экзамен по стилистике Stylistics as a science and style as a main stylistic category

Stylistic inversion aims at attaching logical stress or additional emotional coloring to the surface meaning of the utterance. Therefore a specific intonation pattern is the inevitable satellite of inversion
Stylistic inversion in Modern English is the practical realization of what is potential in the language itself.
The following patterns of stylistic inversion are most frequently met in both English prose and poetry:
1. The object is placed at the beginning of the sentence: “Talent Mr. Micawber has; capital Mr. Micawber has not.”
2. The attribute is placed after the word it modifies. This model is often used when there is more than one attribute: “With fingers weary and worn…”
3. The predicative is placed before the subject: “A good generous prayer it was”
The predicative stands before the link verb and both are placed before the subject: “Rude am I in my speech…”
4. The adverbial modifier is placed at the beginning of the sentence: “My dearest daughter, at your feet I fall.”
5. Both modifier and predicate stand before the subject: “Down dropped the breeze…”
Detached construction. A specific arrangement of sentence members is observed in detachment, a stylistic device based on singling out a secondary member of the sentence with the help of punctuation (intonation). The detached member of the sentence is isolated from the word it’s logically connected with. Its position in the sentence and punctuation marks signify a pause and give the detached members the full force of predication. The word-order here is not violated, but secondary members obtain their own stress and intonation because they are detached from the rest of the sentence by commas, dashes or even a full stop as in the following cases: "He had been nearly killed, ingloriously, in a jeep accident." (I. Shaw.) She, all resisting, smiled into his eyes. The most frequent cases of detached constructions are attributes and adverbial modifiers. Sometimes the isolation is so complete that a word syntactically connected with the sentence is separated into an independent sentence.
Ex.: "I have to beg you for money. Daily." (S. Lewis)
Beautiful lady. Going to kidnap us.
