KEYWORDS OR KEY SOUNDS? ANAPHONY IN THE TEXTS OF YEGOR LETOV (psycholinguistic aspect)
The aim of the work is to consider the phenomenon of anaphony in the texts of Yegor Letov from a psycholinguistic point of view. The hypothesis of the work consists in the following assumption: when generating an anaphony-oriented text, an inner speech code is activated, which is included in the formation of an emotionally charged dominant. Forming at the junction of linguistics and psychology, the hypothesis predetermined the research methodology related, on the one hand, to the theory of speech activity, and on the other hand, to structural semiotic studies of sound repetitions in poetry. The psycholinguistic substrate of the anaphony is the “inner word”, which can be considered a hidden correlate of the text key element. The phonetic reduction of the inner word causes the sound repetitions during the production of the poetic text. In the neurophysiological perspective, anaphonyis related to the mechanism of dominat, by which is meant the temporarily dominant reflex system, which directs the work of the nerve centers at the given moment. The mechanism of operation of the dominant in relation to anaphonyis seen as follows. The initial point of the formation of anaphony is persistent excitation, indicating the occurrence of a dominant associated with an affectively charged situation. At this stage, situational emotionally charged images are included in the text generation process, which are encoded into key phonocomplexes corresponding to units of internal speech. The inhibition of the nerve centers, due to the fact that the dominant draws off the energy of other cortical centers, is manifested in the fact that words are chosen not according to a logical-semantic sign, but according to sound one. This connection of the dominant mainly with the sound substrate of the word can be explained by the fact that the creative dominant of Letov is highly emotional, which involves turning off the semantic input to the mental vocabulary and turning on the selection of words based on sounds. The inertia of the dominant and the tendency to the summation of nerve impulses - ensure the deployment ofanaphony over the course of some text fragments. At the same time, the high inertia of the support complexes and the output of sound repetitions beyond the limits established in the work indicate a strong emotional content of the dominant.
