CONSTRUCTIVE PRINCIPLES OF LANGUAGE PLAY IN V. ISAKOV’S POEMS

Abstract

The article analyzes constructive principles of a language game, which are observed in ironic poems of V. Isakov. Addressing this problem is related to the need to identify common and individual features of a language game in a literary text. This approach is relevant due to the fact that it helps to clarify the specifics of the author’s idiosyncrasy. As a result of the analysis of empirical material, it was found that all the constructive principles of creating game units described in modern linguocreativistics are actively used in the studied texts. Associative overlap and associative provocation are especially often used. Both principles are often combined in one text, with associative provocation playing a dominant role. V. Isakov creates game units based on both lexical and grammatical semantics. As a result of his language experiments, game units are created, the most important characteristic of which is a paradoxical character.
