SOCIAL ASPECT OF FORMATION OF ONOMASTICON IN THE TEXT OF DYSTOPIA

Abstract

The article is dedicated to the study of proper names as linguistic units that form an idea of a social structure of space created by an author of a work of art. The main idea of this study is that works in the dystopian genre are a subtype of utopia and constitute texts of social fiction. This article is aimed at considering features of depiction of social order in literary texts of social fiction. Texts of this genre may contain lexical units that characterize the author’s attitude to his contemporary society. Also, texts of social fiction are characterized by the author’s word creation of new lexical units to describe literary reality, which more fully form the image of the author. In other words, idiostyle, which combines the author’s position, his speech features, including those that are points of intersection of discourses relevant to the author. Thus, the space of artistic reality that the author creates is a repetition of known realities and the manifestation of creative phenomena. The subject of the article’s research is to consider the formation and functioning of onomastic units that reflect features of the social structure in the text of social fiction.
