Авторское этимологизирование в идиостиле Марины Цветаевой (стихотворения Раковина, Минута, Расщелина)
Etymologisation in Marina Tsvetaeva’s Idiostyle (Poems “My Shell”, “Minute”, “The Crevasse”)

Summary/Abstract: This article considers etymologisation in lyrical works by Marina Tsvetaeva on the example of her three poems from 1923: “My Shell” (“Rakovina”), “Minute” (“Minuta”) and “The Crevasse” (“Rasshchelina”). In this case, etymologisation concerns first of all the words which appear as titles of these poems. The study analyses manifestations of etymologisation, namely various aspects of etymological regeneration of words and occurrences of their secondary motivation (poetic etymology) in relation to their aesthetic function in an artistic text. Etymological analysis in the stanzas under consideration is often based on reconstruction of language compliances both at the level of Proto-Slavic and Proto-Indo-European.
