OCCASIONALISMS IN H. MARTINSON’s POEM “ANIARA”

The article is concerned with individual neologisms (occasionalisms, nonce words) in the poem «Aniara» by the Swedish writer H. Martinson. Two groups of nonce words can be distinguished in the poem: highly specialized terms (scientific and technical terminology) and Dorisburg`s «fantasy» slang. Both groups are functionally aimed at solving the main goal of the poem - to create artistic images that allow us to have a new look at the philosophical, ethical, social, environmental and other problems arisen in connection with the development of science and technology. Nonce words not only give new names to objects, actions and phenomena of reality, contribute to the poetic imagery in the poem, but also introduce additional meanings (and connections) to the text, break perception of the text and express the author`s outlook. The particularity of Martinson`s poem is that occasionalisms (technically verified language of the future and «marginal» language of the past) must be considered together, in the combination of their semantic meanings and connections, in order to understand Martinson`s views on the events of the 20th century.
