The Deictic Mode And Its Role in Modeling the Strategy of Text Interpretation
Abstract
The article is devoted to the category of deictic mode and its role in modeling the strategy of text interpretation. The importance of the problem statement is associated with the specifics of the material under study. Fragmentation, discontinuity of spatial-temporal relations, alternation of points of view, nonlinearity of the organization of B. Pasternak’s 1910–1920 prose complicate the process of adequate interpretation of the text, which requires the reader to concentrate attention and go back several times to check the relevance of understanding. In this regard, the techniques that focus the reader’s attention, acquire special significance in the process of interpreting a modernist cento text. The aim of the study is to reveal the system of linguistic means that help focus the reader’s attention, direct it in the process of interacting with the text, and form a strategy for interpretation. The use of the descriptive method, the method of continuous sampling, contextual analysis and the interpretive method made it possible to identify the system of linguistic means, their functional specifics, and the system of deictic relations that activate the reader’s attention by turning on certain cognitive mechanisms. These are both linguistic means and methods of personal deixis (the system of personal pronouns), and means of dialogization (discursive elements), and ungrammatical remarks, and spatial coordinates reflecting the process of the narrator’s gaze movement from object to object. Together, they form a grid of deictic coordinates, each of which should attract the reader’s attention and determine their movement from one point of reference to another. By participating in the organization of the strategies of perception and interpretation of the text by the reader. The identified system of linguistic means and the principles of their interaction, used by Pasternak in early prose, may in future become one of the most regular ways of modeling the deictic mode of the text, which determines the strategy of its interpretation by the reader and reflecting the peculiarities of his idiostyle.
