Abstract:

The article discusses two signifi cant modern lexicography objects — winged words and precedent phenomena. They are connected by extremely actively developing types of dictionaries — author dictionaries and idiomatic dictionaries, that in conjunction make up a noticeable intersection zone. A large number of dictionaries describing the specific authors’ phraseology shows how phraseological language resources are used and how they are transformed in literary text. Special attention is paid to a series of dictionaries created according to the same principles, describing the winged expressions of outstanding writers. Theoretically, the concept of intertexteme can unite a wide and heterogeneous linguistic material and implies various types of intertextual interactions. In the modern language situation context, the ratio of winged words and precedent phenomenais of fundamental importance. Although these concepts often coincide, the diff erence is related to the place that certain units occupy in the linguistic personality intertextual thesaurus. Observations on contemporaries’ speech show that elements of children’s reading texts, especially poetic texts, often act as speech templates and occupy a special place in various discursive practices. These templates are fi lled in depending on the specifi c situation. The article also describes the fi rst experience of creating a dictionary containing children’s literature precedent phenomena.
