POSITIONAL EMPHASIS IN THE MODERN LITERARY TEXT

Abstract

The given article touches upon one of the most relevant in modern psycholinguistics problems of literary cognition of reality by the addresser and perception of his knowledge by the addressee. A positional emphasis has therefore been analysed as a productive way of regulating the reader’s perception of the text information. The research focuses on the relevant exposure of all the traits of lingual units’ actualization and on the further sustainable in-depth description of its linguistic techniques. The investigation grounds on up-to-date methods of literary texts’ analysis, particularly on lingual-poetic interpretation, regulatory structuring as well as on information-content one. The psycholinguistic experiment and the survey likewise the method of gradual scaling as its constituents revealed their productivity.
