Музыкальное семиотическое пространство в современном художественном тексте (по материалам Национального корпуса русского языка)

Abstract

The study is devoted to the analysis of the implementation of the music semiotic space in a modern literary text and is carried out on the basis of the Russian National Corpus, which records the works of fiction of the last two decades. The objectives of the study were to identify language units that represent the music semiotic space in a literary text; define their main functions; establish the symbolism of music in contemporary works of art. It is noted that the music semiotic space is closely connected with the culture of the society, it is an integral and important part of it, the basis for understanding what is happening in the semiotics of music. The scientific novelty of the study lies in the appeal to the units of music semiotic space as components of a literary text, important for the authors to translate cultural meanings, emotions, aesthetics, psychological characteristics of the heroes of the works. It was revealed that when the units of the music semiotic space perform informational and emotional functions, their semiotic significance is minimal, while their main functions in semiotic terms are aesthetic, expressive (emotional), psychological. Moreover, the image of a musical phenomenon is usually combined with a description of that strong impression (up to transformation of personality, feelings, behavior), which it has on the hero of the book. In addition, it is noted that the components of the semiotic music space actualize their symbolic, aesthetic, emotional functions when used in comparisons and metaphors, including conceptual ones. For the authors of modern works of art, it is important to depict the world as sounding, filled with music, which forms a common cultural space for the author and readers, indicates the unity of their cultural codes.
