The paper introduces an experiment on the role of preparedness in writing. The experiment took place in 2010. Participants (N = 51; students of Charles University in Prague) were randomly divided into two groups: group N (N = 24) and group P (N = 27). Their main task was to describe the plot of a short animated film Quest. Group N started to write right after seeing each part of the film, group P had 5 minutes to prepare. Significant differences in the sentence length and number of revisions were shown between the two groups. It is claimed that preparedness is a valid styleforming factor, i.e. it influences both the process and the result of writing. Furthermore, the same method could be used for the analysis of the role of other style-forming factors in the writing process.

The article presents an overview of research on style-forming factors in Czechoslovak linguistics. The conception of style-forming factors was unique at the time of its introduction, but it has not been developed much since then. The article identifies the following problems with this conception: (1) The processual domain of style is not examined; (2) Factors are derived from the resultative domain; (3) It is not clear what particular factors influence and to what extent; (4) Some factors are complex and they could be broken down into partial factors; (5) There is no limit to what can potentially be a style-forming factor. The article offers a possible solution to these problems: experimental research on style-forming factors.

This text reports on an up-to-date approach to style presented in a new handbook of Czech stylistics (Hoffmannová, Homoláč, Chvalovská, Jílková, Kaderka, Mareš & Mrázková 2016). It describes the handbook’s sound and inspiring take on language and the situations, styles, texts and genres of contemporary communication (uncommonly based on the notion of communicative sphere rather than on the traditional concept of functional style). It evaluates the new perspectives on the description, analysis and interpretation of style in seven selected communicative spheres: everyday communication (both spoken and written), administrative communication, expert communication, school communication, media communication (both spoken and written), advertising communication, and literary communication. The text acknowledges how the employment of the ‘communicative sphere’ notion, together with a predominant focus on orality, shifts the Czech view of style from the traditional functional stylistics approach to the “new” stylistics accenting dialogue, interaction, colloquiality and intertextuality.
