STYLISTIC PARADIGM OF «DESCRIPTION» TYPE TEXT

Abstract

The paper is topical because of the contemporary linguistic interest in the text and discourse research, as well as of the need to review some components of the widely spread late ХХ century theory of functional-semantic types of speech. The work is devoted to the identification and analysis of different types of descriptions in the texts of belles-lettres, bookish and colloquial functional styles. The incompleteness and fragmentation of the study of the specifics of the description in different functional styles determine the novelty of the present work. Special attention is paid to identifying the role of the narrator in the belles-lettres description, which suggests the need to take into account the category of the perceiving subject in the analysis of descriptive fragments, despite the formal “withdrawal” of the subject from the structure of the description. The paper reveals the dominance of description-characteristics and contaminated descriptions in the scientific and official styles with a small proportion of visual descriptions. The specifics of colloquial and publicistic descriptions are established. The work shows that the colloquial description gravitates to inconsistency, incompleteness, the presence of repetitions and verbosity. It is proved that publicistic descriptive texts are characterized by dualism in verbalizing the properties of an object. The role of individual description elements (for example, details) in the texts of different functional styles is revealed.
