THE IMAGE PERSON IN PROSE WORKS OF CHERNOBYL THEME

Abstract

The article is devoted to the consideration of the associative-semantic group «responsibility», in particular, the microgroup «person», which is modeled according to idiostyle parameters of the language of Ukrainian prose works of the Chernobyl theme. The functional-stylistic dynamics of components that realize the corresponding conceptual value, types of updating, lexical valence and contextual associativesemantic connections of a person nomination in specific chronicle-documentary texts are considered. The aim of the article is to trace the types of updating of the key semen presented by the associative semantic microgroup, the lexical valence and the context links of the nomination person in selected prose works. To achieve this aim it was necessary to solve the following tasks: – to analyze literary-publicistic prose texts of 80 – 90ies of the XXth century; – to solve the problem of types, lexical valence and contextual associativesemantic relationships (links) of nomination «responsibility»; – to show the formation of associative-semantic group «person»; – to represent generalized literary images of firefighters, the affected population in the period of post-radiation exposure; – to characterize the types of associative-and-semantic deployment of the dominant microgroup «person». Conclusions. The study provides grounds for arguing that the associative semantic microgroup «person» is a representative, semantically saturated segment of documentary chronicle prose, which prompts the search for other associative groups that are closely interwoven with it. The prospects for further research are seen in the further study of lexicalsemantic groups of words that are related to the linguistic forms of person, the motives of moral responsibility for contemporaries and future generations.
