The comparative analysis of neolexicons of Sergey Yesenin and Vladimir Mayakovsky

Abstract

In this article the comparative
analysis of neolexicons of S. Yesenin and
V. Mayakovsky has been performed. It is established
that Yesenin infrequently resorts to
creation of neologisms, which on a form and
content remind regional and out-of-date words
and serve for the poet as additional way to express
the relation to the world around. On the
contrary, Mayakovsky's numerous expressional
neologisms, differing variety of models and
stylistic nuances, are close to colloquial-everyday
popular speech of 1920-1930th of the XXth
century and, being entered into the art and
publicistic text, serve as generation means of
"language balancing act" - word-plays, irony,
paronymic attraction and many others. In compared
neolexicons the layer of identical new
growths that testifies to processes of creative
interference is revealed.
