ONOMASIOLOGICAL COHERENCE IN MYKHAIL SEMENKO’S POETIC WORKS

Abstract

Coherence is simultaneously textual and discursive category that also exists beyond textual boundaries. This category provides for the integrity of the author’s idiostyle, the certain literal method and type of discourse, as well as the corresponding cultural semiosphere. Taking into consideration this fact the typology of coherence needs consideration. According to the cohesive ties the book “Cognitive onomasiology” deals with one of the unstudied types of coherence – onomasiological coherence, based on the repetition of some derivational components of words, words’ roots and general nominative mechanism of word-formation in the writer’s works.Purpose of the article is to characterize the peculiarities of onomasiological coherence in the Ukrainian futurist M. Semenko’s works as the feature of his idiostyle. To reach it the certain tasks are to be fulfilled: 1) to describe the ways of onomasiological coherence realization in M. Semenko’s works via basic futuristic canons; 2) to establish the basic patterns of regularly used onomasiological mechanisms in author’s poetry; 3) to determine the functions of onomasiological coherence in the poetic works; 4) to define the cognitive background of the onomasiologically coordinated lexemes’ motivators.Methods. This article uses a complex set of methods for analyzing the material of the research: contextual-interpretation analysis, morphemic, word-building and cognitive-onomasiological analyses.Results. Coherence is the textual category that mediates the development of the text topics, the formation of its informativity. It enforces the integration of all textual levels to create textual integrity, as well as text perception and understanding. Onomasiological coherence is based on the repetition of the derivational components of words, words’ roots and general nominative mechanism of word-formation.Conclusion. M. Semenko’s poetry combines the canons of the world’s avant-garde with romanticism and dreaminess, emotionality and lyricism, inherent in the Ukrainian culture and ethnic consciousness. The peculiarity of the onomasiological coherence in M. Semenko’s works is stipulated by the author’s positioning as the founder of the Ukrainian quero-futurism.
