Fantastic Binomial, a Conceptual Image-Making Method for Contemporary Ukrainian Free Verse
Journal Title: The Advanced Science Journal - Year 2010, Vol 2010, Issue 1
Abstract
Metaphor as one of the conceptual tropes got a lot of subordinate conceits for its description throughout all the literary history. In the 20th century, one of them was thoroughly formulated in Gianni Rodari’s Grammar of Fantasy (La Grammatica della Fantasia) as a fantastic binomial, a clause which contains a noun and a verb (or an adjective) that a priori are not tied with logical ties and further set up a base for a fairy-tale story. This is the main difference of a fantastic binomial from a usual metaphor. In this paper, we confirmed the mentioned kind of metaphor as a conceptual image-making way in contemporary Ukrainian free verse that is particularly outstanding thanks to its lapidary form.
