Markers of artistic time in the memoir-autobiographical text “Notes of a cavalry girl” by N. A. Durova
Abstract
The urgency of the problem stated in the article is due to the fact that memoirs and autobiographical prose in recent decades are again in the focus of philologists. In this regard, this article is aimed at studying the genre specificity and features of the embodiment of an individual author’s picture of the world in the text, including through spatial-temporal categories. This article analyses nominatives as lexical representatives of the temporality category, and also sets out the features of their functioning in the “Notes of a Cavalry Girl”, taking into account the genre specifics of the text, where a special temporary narrative from the past to the present and a look at the past through the present is revealed. For authors of the article, nominatives with a temporary meaning are most interesting, creating, in particular, the factual accuracy of the narration in the literary text. During the collection of nominatives using the continuous sampling method and their subsequent consideration in the context, it was concluded that the linguistic means of creating artistic time and the methods of their objectification in the “Notes of the Cavalry Girl” make it possible to form an idea of the features of the individually-authored picture of the world N. A. Durova.
