Abstract

After the narrative turn and blurring of the boundaries of narratology, after the shift from classical scientific paradigm, based on formalism and structuralism, to post-classical one, closely related to interdisciplinarity, the issues of terminology and methodology became an important part of debates, visual studies included. That important shift influenced not only the scientific framework for new researches, but also the theoretical principles. The notion of “visual narrative” emerged at the intersection of interest in the field of the visual and narrative, and it can be fully called the result of the interdisciplinarity development. In Western European literature there are two main terms that connect the narration with the sphere of images – these are pictorial and visual narrative. Both belong to the postclassical period of development of narratology. The article deals with the key concepts and significant authors (V. Tyupa, M. Bal, W. Schmid, W. Wolf, W. Steiner) whose works address the very possibility of visual narration in fine Arts, its most significant characteristics, the boundaries between the text and image; attempts have been made to define the essence and borders of visual narrative
