Multidimensionality of vocabulary in the literary language

Abstract

The monograph characterizes vocabulary of a literary language in integral perspective (examples are Ukrainian and French). Word is elucidated as an object of lexicology, in permanent dynamics, in cognitive linguistics, and in thematic clusters. Analysis of lexical phenomena is conducted with regards to both seminal works and most recent studies. This approach helps to trace the evolution of the linguistic thought. The language material originates from various sources that represent the natural speech such as dictionaries, fiction literature, mass media, and internet communication.
