Abstract:

The paper discusses some concepts associated with the thematic areas “nature”, “birds”, “animals” from the point of view of the special features of their implementation in the song folklore of peoples of the Volga region (Mordvins-Erzya, Mordvins-Moksha, Udmurts and Chuvash) autochthonous and Siberian existence. The work is based on a selection of song folklore samples Posted in the Atlas of Sounding Folklore Texts (URL: https://folkmap.philology.nsc.ru). The selection was made using a thematic filter on the map and a full-text search Instrument. We found of a characteristic feature of the poetic form of songs, associated with the formation of triple and double rows. This is due, among other things, to the use of a stepwise narrowing of the image. The paper describes the poetic means used to define concepts. We have established the methods of forming cultural meanings associated with the use of comparative and definitional constructions. Our results allow us to determine the perspectives for further development of a complex study of multilingual poetics of song folklore.
