Linguopragmatic Components of the Texts of Folk-poetic Discourse (Based on the Texts of Folk Spells)

Abstract

The problems of linguistic and pragmatic analysis of folklore texts are of great importance for modern linguistics, in particular, the genre of folk spell, despite numerous studies in the field of philology, is the least studied from this point of view. The purpose of this study is to study such linguopragmatic components of a folk poetic text as intention and opposition "the sender – the addressee". In the discursive analysis of texts, the attention of researchers is focused on such components of linvopragmatics as the sender-addressee and intention. As a result, the following was revealed. The sender of the spell formula is presented explicitly and implicitly. The addressee of the message can be a person, phenomena and objects of reality. The functioning of the sender-addressee opposition is conditioned by illocution. The intention of the spell is transformed in genres and thematic blocks, and also manifests itself in the folk poetic text as a gradational interaction of the components of the speech act. It has been established that different spell texts correlate with macro- and microintension from more to less. The form of the spell text correlates with the monologue due to the fact that the sender does not care about the emotional and informational response, the result in the form of the realization of the intention is in the first place. The language structure of the genre creates special conditions for this.  The results obtained contribute to the development of functional linguistics.
