Abstract
The article contains the results of the study into the semantic and meaning structure of the literary texts of the novels, comprising the cycle "The Dark Tower" by S. King. The texts of the seven main novels of the cycle "The Dark Tower" are considered by the authors of the article as a hypertext, in the space of which the basic meanings, ideas and symbols significant to the author’s definition of objectives are being unfolded. In the course of the study, the lexical unit "rose" was identified as one of the most frequently employed by the author. The card index including 359 cases of objectification of the studied lexical unit in the text has been made up. The analysis of the lexical unit "rose" has revealed the occurrence of individual-author semantics; their significant predominance over the usual semantics was also noticed. Basing on the results of the card index analysis the presence of thirteen individual-author semantics implemented in the texts of the studied novels was stated. The data of the research allowed to maintain the belonging of the lexical unit "rose" to the semantic dominants of the text space and to make assumptions about its significance in the process of meaning formation and interpretation of the text.
