INTERRELATION OF VERBAL TENSE FORMS AND LEXICAL INDICATORS IN STRUCTURING A LITERARY TEXT (ON THE MATERIAL OF THE GERMAN LANGUAGE)
Abstract
The article deals with problems related to the interrelation of German verbal tense forms (Plusquamperfect, Perfect, Preterit) and lexical indicators of temporal semantics (having nominative and relative character) while creating a many-sided temporal perspective of the narration and distinguishing subject planes of narration in the literary text. The analysis of the linguistic data allows the following conclusions. In expressing the temporal perspective of narration, lexical and grammatical means interact, and they may be either semantically compatible or incompatible. In the latter case there may arise two possibilities: the lexical means can shift the grammatical means to its own domain, or, vice versa, the grammatical means can transfer the lexical ones into the sphere of its own functioning. In contrast, in the expression of subject planes of narration it is sufficient to have either a lexical indicator, or a grammatical marker, i.e. grammatical and lexical units exclude each other.
Key words
Text, temporal perspective of narration, temporal structure of the text, tense forms of the verb, adverbs of relative and nominative time.
