Экспрессивно-риторический потенциал атрибутивных словосочетаний в похвальных словах XVIII века
The Expressive and Rhetorical Potential of Attributive Collocations in 18th-Century Panegyrics

Summary/Abstract: In the word order in the Russian literary language of the 18th century, according to many researchers, there was not yet a strictly fixed norm, however, the grammarians in the 18th and 19th centuries made attempts in their teachings to explain the order of certain parts of speech. M. Lomonosov’s teachings set forth in his rhetorical treatises played a special role in the consolidation of the norms in the word order. This paper describes the functioning of attributive word combinations in the panegyrics written by F. Prokopovich, M. Lomonosov, and A. Sumarokov in the middle of the 18th century. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the word order in attributive collocations in 18th-century panegyrics and to describe the stylistic means that are used in the word arrangement of these attributive constructions.
