The article is devoted to the revealing of the phenomenon of polyphony in the Tolstoy’s works. The article explores the phenomenon of polyphony in a general sense: thepolyphony is as the equality of mutually exclusive elements within the same semantic context / image / concept as to in the synchrony and in the diachrony. The relevance of the problem is due to the fact that the phenomenon of polyphony in the Tolstoy’s works was previously considered from the standpoint of literary criticism, but almost never analyzed in the context of text linguistics. The purpose of this work is the analyzing of the phenomenon of polyphony from the standpoint of text linguistics in the epic novel “War and Peace”. For this purpose the main task of the study is to combine two approaches in the analysis of a literary text: linguistic and literary approaches. In the semantic structure of the analyzed work, the phenomenon of polyphony will be expressed in the existence of mutually exclusive meanings within the same semantic context, object (image), within the same concept, therefore the semantic structure of the image and the conceptually significant concepts of the epic novel will be endowed with a system of opposed to each other meanings, which will lead to polyphony of the entire semantic structure of the text as a whole.
Keywords: text linguistics, phenomenon of polyphony, internal conflict of the hero, dialogism, semantic structure of the image, opposition of meanings, “War and Peace” by L.N. Tolstoy.
