CONTRAST AS A METHOD OF FOREGROUNDING IN THE PROSE OF M. TSVETAEVA: OPPOSITION WITH THE HELP OF QUASI-ANTONYMS

Contrast, as one of the ways of foregrounding, plays a crucial role in the organization of M. Tsvetayeva's prose texts of different genres. The article shows this by analyzing an excerpt from M. Tsvetaeva’s letter to B. Pasternak (1926). This passage is two paragraphs and by its structure and content is close to the antonymic block-composite. The contrast between the sea and the land is actualized by M. Tsvetaeva and is the main principle of the organization of the given text passage. The contrasting foregrounding of meaningful information is carried out with the help of quasi-antonyms land - sea, mountain - sea, mountain - ocean. The authors show how the end-to-end antithesis based on the semantic opposition of land and water is built in the analyzed passage, how new asymmetrical relations - contradictory (land/water; land/sea), vector (sea/mountain) and gradational (mountain/sea; mountain/ocean) - are built in it, laying one on another and gradually deepening the contrast, which help the author to convey figuratively and emotionally her negative attitude to the sea and positive one to the mountain.
