The state and prospects of Ukrainian literary onomastics development in the Slavic context

Abstract

Literarna onomastika je ena najbolj priljubljenih smeri v slovanski onomastiki. Kljub njeni priljubljenosti v ukrajinski onomastiki pa še vedno obstajajo nekatera terminološka nasprotja, celo glede samega termina. V članku trdiva, da so terminološke nedoslednosti povezane ne le s kompleksnostjo predmeta preučevanja, ampak tudi z različnimi nameni in nalogami, ki si jih zastavljajo raziskovalci, ter z veliko različnimi stališči, ki veljajo za predmet literarne onomastike. Glede na raznolikost literarnih besedil ter funkcij, ki jih imajo v literarnih besedilih lastna imena, meniva, da je perspektiva razvoja literarne onomastike razumevanje te onomastične smeri kot večplastne in kompleksne discipline.

Literary onomastics is one of the most popular fields of Slavic onomastics. However, despite the popularity, certain terminology disagreements in literary onomastics still exist. The article brings up the opinion that the complexity of the object of study is not the only reason for the terminological inconsistencies. According to the tasks that the researchers set themselves in terms of literary onomastics analysis, there is a completely different purpose behind it. Given the diversity of literary texts and the functions of proper names, it considers the understanding of it as a complex multidimensional discipline to be a perspective of literary onomastics development.
