in poetry, where the author expresses his attitude

It is inherent in a poetic text as a whole. "From the three main genres of literature — 
lyrics, epos, drama — writes G. V. Stepanov, — for many centuries of its existence lyrical 
poetry has become the best form of expressing the author's inner state", and further on: “A 
personal attitude to the created image is sure to suppose an evaluation”.
Things are entirely different in scientific texts. Objectivity, logic, argumentation— the 
typical qualities of scientific texts — usually leave no room for subjective evaluating 
modality. Similar absence of subjective modality is typical of business documents too, 
while in newspaper editorials, sketches, essays and speeches modality comes forward 
rather distinctly.

certain regularities. Subjective evaluating attitude to the object of utterance, as a rule, 
doesn't reveal the essence of a phenomenon, but only colours it correspondingly, and 
gives a notion of the author's world outlook. Therefore textual modality more frequently 
finds its place in_relative_spans of the text, which don't carry the main factual information, 
but not in predicative spans, which are mostly imbued with facts. Yet, in the process of
linear development of the text accentuation can be shifted and relative spans may gradually 
acquire the status of predicative ones. As a result, modality acquires a more significant 
role in creating conceptual information.
Grammatical and lexical means of modality serving for revealing this category 
inside a sentence (
phrase modality
) are used in the text in special ways. For instance, 
repeating one and the same pattern of a stylistic device and giving it various lexical filling, 
the author consciously or unconsciously characterizes some phenomenon, event or 
personality and indirectly reveals his own attitude to them. 
The most convenient and concise way of realizing modality in a sentence is an epithet. 
In the text it plays a less significant part, because (in virtue of its syntactic function of an 
attribute) it characterizes only the object to which it refers. Yet the epithet also, 
becoming a frequently repeated stylistic device, begins to reveal the
