Abstract
We analyze the linguistic features of poetic texts by V.A. Soloukhin. We investigate the semantics of “water” as the designation of one of the nature elements, and its functional features. We give complex description of the linguistic embodiment of the “water” element in the author’s artistic worldview. We focus on consideration of the lexemes that serve to represent the water element, conducting the most complete analysis of V.A. Soloukhin’s use of this element in poetic works. We consider element in connection with the peculiarities of the Russian mentality, culture and history in the national specifics. We pay attention to the description of substantive side of water element and philosophical, historical and cultural meanings related to this lexeme, to the implementation and use of this linguistic unit in specific texts and in the minds of native speakers. We provide the description of nature on the example of water element, the structure and functions of this word. The study may have a practical focus in the framework of teaching Russian, including Russian as a foreign language; in studying the work of V.A. Soloukhin in the literature studies course and in the compilation of author’s dictionaries.
