Linguostylistic Peculiarities of the Danube River Description in Fiction

Abstract

One of the perspective areas in modern linguistics is Anthropological Linguistics. Understanding and perception of the language as an anthropocentric phenomenon is one of the leading trends in the development of modern Ukrainian onomastics. The relevance of this article is to consider the author’s individual style, which relies on the usage of various lexical microstructures of the text. The stylistic devices, describing the Danube hydronym, are analyzed and investigated in this article. The study shows that the usage of different linguostylistic devices allows a reader to imagine the depicted object more vividly and to understand all the writer’s peculiarities of particular fictional work’s language.
