Экстралингвистические условия формирования русского топонимикона Приенисейской Сибири (на материале памятников деловой письменности XVII века)

Abstract

The article describes a fragment of the toponymic system of the Yenisei Siberia in the period preceding the appearance of Russian first settlers in this territory. The relevance of the work is determined by lack of research of the initial state of the toponymic system of the Yenisei Siberia, the reconstruction of which is possible only with the help of preserved manuscript monuments, as well as by the need to describe the toponymic space of a single region from the first fixation in written sources to the present state. The novelty of the study lies in the fact that the reconstruction of the initial stage of the formation of the toponymic system of the Yenisei Siberia is for the first time carried out on the material of unpublished handwritten documents of the 17 th -18 th centuries, which recorded not only the actual Russian place names, but also the names of geographical objects dating back to the languages of the autochthonous population of Siberia. Special attention is paid to the typical features of place names belonging to different linguistic groups of the indigenous population. It is shown that the presence of pre-Russian toponymy is one of the extralinguistic conditions for the formation of the Russian toponymic system. It is proved that the study of toponymy of pre-Russian origin allows to recreate an objective picture of the formation of the toponymic system of the Yenisei Siberia and thereby expand the understanding of the all-Russian and regional system of toponymic signs from the position of naming resources.
