Tone is the attitude of a writer/artist toward a subject. Tone is generally conveyed through the choice of words or the viewpoint. Written and visual pieces have a central theme or subject matter. The manner in which a writer approaches this theme and subject is the tone. The tone can be formal, informal, serious, comic, sarcastic, sad, or cheerful, or it may be any other existing attitude. Read more about stance (another word for tone) on p. 66 in The Norton Field Guide.
