SEMIOTIC APPROACH TO STYLISTIC FIGURES OF SPEECH AND TROPES IN V. SHKLYAR'S NOVEL «KROL KAZHANA»

Abstract

The article is devoted to the problem of determining the sign status of stylistic fi gures and tropes, which functions in different discourses. The several tasks have been accomplished to achieve this goal. Firstly, the author of the article proved that stylistic fi gures and tropes are semiotic units. This conclusion was drawn on the basis of the fact that all components of the text form a single semiotic system, that is, each component is semiotic. Secondly, the author suggested that stylistic fi gures and tropes can perform certain functions of signs from the classifi cation of Ch. Pierce, who is one of the founders of semiotics as a science. The ratio should be based on the similarity of the functions of fi gures and signs. Thirdly, the author correlated the signs-copies with metaphors, comparisons, allegories, paranomases, and antibodies on the basis of their pictorial nature. Allusions and puns have been correlated with signs-indexes on the basis of their indicative nature. Dialecticisms, phraseological units and proper symbols have been correlated with symbolic symbols, because they had conventional nature. Each semiotic group contains examples of the text fragments from the novel of the Ukrainian writer V. Shklyar «Blood of the Bat». It is established that the stylistic fi gures and tropes of iconic type are in the fi rst place in terms of quantitative dynamics.
