Popis: This text analyses the novel Lanark by the Scottish author Alasdair Gray from the perspective of intermediality, visual studies and graphic novel theory, presenting preliminary considerations from a doctoral dissertation dealing with the visuality of text in Alasdair Gray, while interpreting his novels as “postmodern graphic novels”. Intermediality and the convergence of the visual and verbal in Gray as the focus author for Scottish literature, which will be researched as the literary, historical and political context of the author's texts, is observed as a visual language that constitutes comics in the broader sense, offering a new, interdisciplinary critical perspective on Scottish literature, a national literature studied by a growing network of scholars, which is an especially interesting case study in the contemporary age of Great Britain's waning power and rising post-national tendencies, where Alasdair Gray stands as an example of innovation stemming from this context and implementing it.
