INDIVIDUAL AUTHOR'S NON-EQUIVALENT UNITS IN EXPRESSING THE VIRTUAL CHRONOTOPE OF A FANTASY LITERARY WORK

Abstract

The article studies the expression potential of individual-author occasional units within the framework of virtual fantasy chronotope actualization. The author develops the typology of lexical means objectifying the artistic space of a fantasy work. The most effective in the expression aspect is the lexical-grammatical layer of a fantasy work. Based on the criterion of denotative-referential correlation, the following are units distinguished: denotative-non-equivalent, referential-pragmatic-non-equivalent and stylistic-alternative-non-equivalent, which together allow the author to fully realize the opportunity to create a fantasy world. Text and speech individual-author constructions allow blurring the boundaries of the virtual space, introducing features of objective reality into the fantasy world, thereby predicting the effect of objectification. Based on a comprehensive analysis, the author studies non-equivalent lexemes that function as implementers of the virtual chronotope in Robert Anthony Salvatore's fantasy novels "Dragon Dangeon", which appear to be the most representative in terms of the breadth of the spectrum of the occasional means presented. With the reference to etymological, component and contextual analyses, the author comes to the conclusion about the contaminated nature of the individual author's constructions based on the usual and occasional onyms, which form the effect of contrast between the real and fantasy worlds.
