Problems of compiling the Motivational Poetic Dictionary of Ye. Yevtushenko

The Motivational Poetic Dictionary of Ye. Yevtushenko is a linguistic and poetic dictionary; its purpose consists in reflection of the specifics of not only the author's word usage, but also the author's world image. Such a concept of the dictionary causes complexity of its structure: the dictionary is divided into dictionary blocks ("Antithesis", "Metaphor", "Keywords", etc.), dictionary blocks are divided into semantic sections ("Description of the world around", "Character description", "Lyrical hero description"), semantic sections are divided into semantic subsections (planes of the poetic reality depiction: social, sociopolitical, gender, etc.). In the course of work on the dictionary questions of structuring the dictionary corpus became urgent: the question of assigning motivational groups to semantic sections, as well as to planes of the poetic reality depiction within sections; distant motivation and motivational blocks representation problem; the problem of reflection of motivational groups multi-functionality in the structure of the entry of the motivational poetic dictionary. To discuss these designated the article presents a fragment of the Motivational Poetic Dictionary of Ye. Yevtushenko. It contains samples of entries of the dictionary block "Keywords". Words connected on the basis of lexical motivation as keywords are words concentrating information borne by the whole text, they reflect the main subject, idea, sense of the poem, express the central artistic image the being a structural framework of a poetic work. The formal feature of this use of motivation is the distant arrangement of motivators in various points of the poetic text and the use of various (two and more) motivational groups connected with each other on the associative and semantic basis. Considering words connected on the basis of lexical motivation as keywords owing to their features allows to illustrate all designated problems of compiling the Motivational Poetic Dictionary of Ye. Yevtushenko. One of the most important problems of drawing up the motivational poetic dictionary is the problem of motivational groups reference to its semantic sections and subsections. Complexity of this analytical operation is connected with the overlapping of the semantics of the allocated sections and planes of the poetic reality depiction. Searches of objective criteria of reference of words connected on the basis of lexical motivation in this or that section are reflected in the extensive summary table which represents text markers of reference of motivational groups to this or that semantic section of the dictionary and its subsections.
