Abstract
The article discusses the functioning of anthroponyms and allusive names in Yegor Letov’s creative activity within the framework of functional linguistics. A recipient's consciousness connects the text and the reality during the process of text perception, i.e the verbal images system (reflections of the word forms in the person’s consciousness) and objective images system (images of reality phenomena and situations) are connected. Language laws regulate the system of verbal images. This system has a syntagmatic character that reflects the linear principle of the text disposition in the act of reception. Verbal images generate objective images on the conceptual level (level of thinking). The connections between these images are paradigmatic and the text understanding determines them. The system of objective images can be considered as a conceptual paradigm, and the system that generates a conceptual paradigm is a verbal paradigm. The paradigms WE and THEY are the dominant paradigms of Yegor Letov’s creative activity. These paradigms contradict one another in the framework of analyzed texts. The law of anthroponyms and allusive names use for the formation of the rock poet’s main antinomy WE-THEY is established. Key words: anthroponyms, allusive names, functional linguistics, textual depth, paradigms, poetic text.
