Abstract

The article focuses on some of the English syntactical structures in fiction that manifest the category of alterity, a constituent category for cognitive and communicative processes. Not being a grammar category, alterity is viewed as an implicit communication category, rendered within its categorical properties. On account of alterity being made explicit through a definite use of syntactic means, it is possible to decode the implicit meanings and latent properties of the characters’ verbal and non-verbal communication.
