Abstract:
The article offers an analysis of one of the expressive markers of the language of social works of B. Humeniuk “Poems from the war”. Stylistic functions, structural and semantic properties of epithets are outlined. The connection between lyrical and epic epithets and the form of poems – verlibr – is noted. The functional load of epithets in correlation with linguistic-stylistic categories actualization, intimation, subjectivization, publicism, epicness, lyricism is traced. The role of epithets as actualizers of emotional assessments, concrete-sensory associations (color, size, smell of realiti

The article examines the features of verbalizing the category of quality in Marina Tsvetaeva’s prose texts through the lens of the vectors of figurative semantics formation by means of epithet complexes. The purpose of the study is to identify the mechanisms of representing qualitative, attributive semantics in Marina Tsvetaeva’s idiolect. To achieve this goal, the following methods were employed: descriptive, component analysis, and cognitive-semantic analysis of linguistic units. Epithet complexes of metaphorical, metonymic, and metaphonymic types were analyzed, allowing the identification o

Abstract:
Epithetation is a process of assigning an attributive meaning to an object represented by a nominal word. The specificity of epithetation is the presence of contextual markers, which leads to the attribution of non-usual, non-systemic attributes from the standpoint of the language norm, but fits into the framework of the individual style, expressing the occasional nature and non-standard thinking of the author. The study of epithetation is transformed from the recognition of regular, systemic variability of the meaning of the attributive word (epithet) to the analysis of the mechanisms of the

According to the cognitive theory that has developed in modern linguistics, the processes of metaphorization and metonymization are based on the processing of knowledge structures fixed in the human cognitive system in the form of various concepts and frames.

The paper examines the linguistic and cultural semantics of the Yakut word buruo (smoke) by exploring its metaphorical manifestations in vocabulary, phraseology, and folklore. The folklore text is analyzed using a structural-semiotic approach to examine language as a cultural verbal code. For the first time, the smoke metaphor is recognized as a source of riddles, proverbs, good wishes, incantations, euphemisms, and others. Otherwise, the metaphor is found to have meaning- and text-forming functions. In the Yakut linguoculture, the smoke metaphor creates a micro paradigm of linguistic units wi

The study examines the metaphorical epithet in a fragment from the Victorian novel by Thomas Hardy, “Tess of the D’Urbervilles”. The paper analyzes the concept of a metaphorical epithet in the light of the paradigmatic approach. It is seen as part of a metaphor that characterizes defined objects or phenomena in an allegoric sense, i.e., an epithet based on a figurative meaning (metaphor). The authors employ general methods of observation, explication, and inductive reasoning along with theoretical tools and approaches used in the analysis of fiction.

In so doing, however, he adopted the literal (Arabic) and metaphorical (kalāmic) language of Islam. This adoption facilitated the creation of an “Islamic Judaism.” This was not only phenomenologica

In Spanish syntax, a clitic left-dislocated constituent may incorporate a coreferential epithet within the sentence, along with a clitic as a resumptive element. In previous research, there exist three approaches to the relationships among the dislocated constituent, the clitic, and the epithet. The first suggests the dislocated constituent is originally generated in its surface position. The second argues it originates in a small clause with the epithet, then moves to the left periphery. The third contends the constituent is part of a distinct clause, truncated by ellipsis. This study examine

While both nature and function of the burrow are hard to pinpoint (is it a dwelling, a shelter, a fortress, a labyrinth, a ruin?), the initially reported success of its construction is revealed as illusory, thus prompting the ongoing first-person narration of
