CULTURAL ALLUSIONS IN TEXT CREATION OF UKRAINIAN AND RUSSIAN FANTASY

Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of allusion as an element of intertextuality, which plays an important role in the text - making of Russian and Ukrainian fantasy texts. Scientific investigations are analyzed, in which there are definitions of allusion as a stylistic figure and stylistic reception, hint and indirect reference. The origin of allusion as borrowing of a pretext, and also its semantic-compositional role in expression of constructive intertextuality (according to N. Fateeva) is characterized. It is determined that allusions, according to A. Tyutenko, work to increase the content. The own definition of the concept of allusion as a dual (verbal-non-verbal) means of actualizing the cultural and historical memory of the reader is proposed. The duality of allusion is that it can be intertextual or intermedia, with reference to the fine and audiovisual arts (including cinema, opera, ballet), music, and so on. The cognitive-suggestive function of allusion is important. In addition, the question of distinguishing between the concepts of "precedent phenomenon" and "allusion" arises. In our study, allusions may contain precedent phenomena - names, names, situations, etc .; but allusion is a broader concept because it is a hint, and a hint does not necessarily contain specific onyms. On the other hand, the precedent phenomenon is not always an allusion in the literal sense of the word, it can be a quotation or just a reference to a well-known fact, such as dictionary definitions. Allusion as an intertextual element appears on the verge of combining two contexts - the source, from which the author chooses the element he needs, and the new, newly created. Very often allusive vocations work as analogies, comparisons of the new and the well-known. However, the vast majority of allusions used in fantasy are built on the use of precedent phenomena - universal-precedent or national-precedent. Culturological (religious, mythological, fairy-tale) allusions were analyzed on the basis of a total of 570 fragments (17% of the total number of intertextual elements selected from the source base (3341.)). in the table, exceeds 570 due to the fact that certain varieties overlap: artionyms can be a variety of fairy tales and a variety of literary, intermedia, as well as anthroponyms, poetonyms, etc. We did not distinguish between attributed and non-attributed allusions, the reason is small the number of attributed allusions in fantasy works. Examples from the works of Volodymyr Arenev, Darya Korniy, Niki Kallen, Max Frei and other Ukrainian-speaking and Russian-speaking writers are given. We came to the conclusion that mythological references are convenient to divide by cultural source: Aztec, East (Tibet), Greek culture, Egypt, China, Scandinavian mythology and Slavic. It should be noted that references to Slavic mythology are the most common in Ukrainian fantasy, while in Russian they are almost non-existent. Religious allusions are more part of the recipient's permanent intertextual field, which allows for the creation of intertextual connections with the religious context (sacred texts, material artifacts), as well as to enrich the arsenal of magical elements in fantasy discourse. Folklore allusions are part of a group of ideological allusions - folklore vocations to folk art reflect the people's ideas about the world around them, so they contain mythonyms, theonyms, etc., and are closely related to magical discourse through the involvement of mythonyms, theonyms, names to denote chimerical creatures and other signs of the fantastic.
