| 1 | The article is devoted to the study of morphemic repetition and inversion in English artistic prose. Either of these phenomena being a means of emphasis, they, when combined, produce a most powerful effect on the reader. In this article inverted sentences accompanied by morphemic repetition are analyzed from the point of view of the functional sentence perspective. Both root and affixal reiteration are subjected to analysis. As a result the following conclusions may be drawn. Closely connected and interrelated are such aspects as: a) the type of the recurrent morpheme (root or affix); b) the type of cohesion (chain-like or parallel); c) the communicative function of words with the reiterative morpheme (thematic or rhematic) The character of the actual division of inverted sentences and the type of cohesion largely depend on the type of morpheme reiterated. In case of root repetition the rheme of the first sentence expressed by the word with the recurrent morpheme migrates into the theme of the second utterance. More typical of root repetition is chain-like cohesion of inverted sentences. In case of affixal repetition the rheme of the preceding sentence, expressed by the word with the recurrent morpheme, does not usually change its rhematic character in the succeeding sentence. More characteristic of affixal repetition is syntactical parallelism. | 2993 | ||||
| 2 | The article is devoted to the study of morphemic repetition in English fiction. The object of investigation is morphemically related antonyms. Textual strings of antonymic words with the common morpheme demonstrate considerable variety. They include both traditional and occasional words. It is not obligatory that morphemically related antonyms should belong to the same part of speech. Their derivational structure may also be diverse. Their semantic relationships are also heterogeneous. | 1678 | ||||
| 3 | The article considers morphemically related words used in syntactically parallel structures observed in English works of fiction. The interrelation of morphemic repetition and syntactical parallelism manifests itself in different ways predetermined by the variety of morphemes and the diversity of parallel structures. The most important issue is the aesthetic aspect of the interrelation of the phenomena. It is realized in the interplay of the two mutually opposed basic principles, those of Apollonic order and Dionysian disorder, accordance and discordance, regulation and its violation. Keywords: morphemic repetition, syntactical parallelism, interrelation of morphemic and syntactical repetition, aesthetic aspect, Apollonic principle, Dionysian principle | 1554 | ||||
| 4 | Interrelation of morphemic repetition and syntactical parallelism in English fiction is not infrequently accompanied by the phenomenon of defeated expectancy. The combination of twofold repetition – of those of morphemes and of syntactical structures – reciprocally enhance the rule and order they create. Unpredictable breach of the established rule leads to defeated expectancy on the part of the reader. This effect is never realized in full, since the unexpected changes enforced by the author do not radically affect or annihilate either morphemic repetition or syntactical parallelism. Keywords: morphemic repetition, syntactical parallelism, the effect of defeated expectancy, indexicality of repetition, unpredictable breach of the established rule | 1667 | ||||
| 5 | Contextual co-occurrence of morphemic repetition and syntactical parallelism in English fiction is by no means an exception. Interrelation of these syntagmatic phenomena reveals itself in the diversity of word combinations specifically correlated as to the following features: the number of constituents, the extent of syntactical parallelism, the linguistic status of the reiterated morpheme, the type of semantic ties between the morphemically related constituents. The interrelation considered is not a mere interplay of the twofold reiteration – on the morphemic and the syntactical level but primarily it is a most important means of carrying the meaning. Keywords: morphemic repetition, syntactical parallelism, dynamic character of the interrelation of morphemic and syntactical repetition, the number of constituents in a parallel structure, semantic relationships, antithetical structures | 1380 | ||||
| 6 | The article is focused on ekphrasis serving as a term to designate verbal representation of a work of fine arts in literature. Ekphrasis is analysed as presented in the poem “Portraits” written by the famous English poet Ted Hughes. Specific features of ekphrasis and various linguistic means of its manifestation are subjected to analysis. A dialogic form of ekphrasis is employed in the poem. The main features embedded in the archetypal scheme of an ekphrastic dialogue are revealed in the poem under analysis. The mysterious message sent by the portrait of the heroine with the doppelganger in the background is deciphered not by the artist as the connoisseur and the interpreter, but by the poet whose role is that of a naпve listener. Keywords: English poetry, Ted Hughes, “Portraits”, fine arts, ekphrasis, ekphrastic dialogue, the archetypal scheme, an image coming to life, mysterious message of the picture, the motif of a doppelganger | 1488 | ||||
