Abstract
The article discusses theoretical issues concerning the analysis of La Rochefoucauld’s “Maxims&8j1; as a unified textual space, and presents one of the methods of analysis of the book. Obviously, the structure of the work and the isolation of its individual entries does not allow us to talk about “Maxims&8j1; as a cohesive text. Nevertheless, its coherence is contingent upon the reader's willingness for nonlinear analysis. This article shows the method of identifying logical and semantic connections between isolated entries that constitute the text of “Maxims&8j1;. It demonstrates the cases of repeated and regular interactions of semantic fields in formally unrelated maxims, which indicates the presence of an implicit figurative system in the text, the presence of which proves the possibility of interpreting “Maxims&8j1; as a unified text, and not a set of independent statements.
