Georthonyms in the prose discourse by Maria Matios: semantic-stylistic aspect. The article is devoted to the systematic research of removable units that represent the lexico-semantic group "sacred time" in the prose texts by Maria Matios

Abstract

The purpose of the research is to analyze the features of the functioning of georthonyms in the prose discourse of Maria Matios in a complex and multifaceted way and to outline the place of the mentioned category of lexis (as a fragment of the sacral linguosphere in general) in the system of the author's language thinking and the author's world reception through the prism of mental theocentrism. We conduct deep linguostylistic studios on sacred onomalexemes Easter, Christmas, St. Peter&Paul’s holiday, Ivan Kupala's holiday, First Virgin, Pokrova and others. It is noted that the georthonyms in the stories by Maria Matios are combined with two semantic units "religious holiday" and "lent" and organically interact with other expressions of the category of temporal – folklore and mythological time. We made a generalization about the organic coexistence of two calendars - folk and church (Christian) which determine broadening of the lexical-semantic amount of georthonyms. In the investigated stories by Maria Matios, the entire canonical corps of nomanes on the denotation of Christian holidays (georthonyms) - from the largest (Easter, Christmas) to the great and the most ordinary (Epiphany holiday, Annunciation holiday, the Savior holiday, etc.) is marked. It is arranged according to the significance of the church for each sacred person, taking into account the hierarchy of the saints and also in accordance with the sacred and ritual-traditional priorities of the area (Hutsulshchyna). The georthonyms in the prose of Maria Matios sometimes are subject to unexpected modifications, transformations, additional semantic, associative or symbolic displacements but they always preserve the original sacred semantics that is not profanated and doesn’t change its sacred nature.
