Abstract

The thesis deals with the issue of investigation of metaphors in Theodore Dreiser's novel “Sister Carrie”. The use of metaphors makes the novel more expressive and imaginary. Key words: metaphor, expressive means, stylistic means, fiction, Sister Carrie The issue of expressiveness in fiction is exceptionally important in the perception of the main idea of the novel. Creative heritage of outstanding writers, such as Theodore Dreiser, always attracted and attracts the attention of most researchers, both linguists and literary critics. Study of language means of these writers bears a great sense for revealing many sides of national literary language as a whole, for example, its history, expressive possibilities, rules and tendencies of language development in a definite period of time. All of these are possible only due to the deep penetration of the researchers to the creative laboratory of the writer. The theoretical and methodological basis of the study, conditioned by the aims and task set before the research, requires the following methods: semantic – contextual and functional analysis of metaphors; descriptive method of various approaches to the use and nature of metaphors; the method of theoretical substantiation of the essence of this stylistic device; method of continuous sampling of the actual language material; the method of comparative-typology.

德莱塞小说《嘉莉妹妹》中的隐喻
本文探讨了西奥多·德莱塞小说《嘉莉妹妹》中隐喻的研究问题。隐喻的使用使小说更有表现力和想象力。关键词:隐喻、表现手段、文体手段、小说、嘉莉妹妹小说中的表现力问题在理解小说主旨方面尤为重要。西奥多·德莱塞等杰出作家的创作遗产一直吸引着语言学家和文学评论家的广泛关注。研究这些作家的语言手段,对于揭示民族文学语言的历史、表现可能性、语言在一定时期内发展的规律和趋势等多个方面具有重要意义。所有这些都是由于研究人员对作者创造性实验室的深入渗透才有可能实现的。研究的理论和方法基础,以研究前设定的目标和任务为条件,需要以下方法:隐喻的语义-语境和功能分析;隐喻的使用和性质的各种方法的描述性方法;这种文体手法本质的理论实证方法;对实际语言材料进行连续抽样的方法;比较类型学的方法。
