Abstract
The article studies the role of the pronominatives in creating MINE/NOT MINE semantic field. The article deals with questions devoted to investigating the problem of specific verbalization MINE/NOT MINE concept which were studied by different scietists. The article considers places and functions of prominatives in mentioned semantic field. The article determines the semantic meaning of pronouns which take part in MINE/NOT MINE semantic field formation in intimate lyric. Prominatives are one of the most obvious language universals. Due to the considerable semantic and morphological peculiarities, the class of pronouns attracted the researchers’ attention at different periods of linguistics development. Problems of studying promominatives remain equally relevant to the present including studying the pronouns semantic potential in poetry text. The purpose of this article is to determine the semantic content of the pronouns that take part in the formation of the intimate poetry semantic field MINE/NOT MINE. The objectives of this article are: the definition of issues that scientists have been addressing, studying the problem of the peculiarities of the verbalization the concepts of MINE/NOT MINE; to define the semantics of promominates involved in the formation of the semantic field of MINE/NOT MINE in modern intimate lyric. Love poetry is an extremely versatile and inexhaustible material for research. The analyzed actual material has shown that the main content of MINE sphere in modern intimate poetry are personal pronouns, like I, YOU, WE and possessive MY (OUR), YOUR, MINE. NOT MINE sphere is formed by third-person pronouns, personal pronouns YOU, as well as denied and undefined pronouns. There are also cases of syncretism – a combination of the semantic fields of MINE/NOT MINE in one poem. Thus, the verbal expression of the semantic field MINE in intimate poetry is minimal. It is reduced to I+YOU=WE. The bundle of love emotions is exploded with a cluster of pronouns I, YOU, WE, MY (OUR), YOUR, MINE. The semantic field of MINE is wide and everything that does not apply to ME and YOU is NOT MINE. The further research seems to be very perspective in studying the syntagmatic-paradigmatic relations with mentioned earlier pronouns in the intimate poetry language.
