TEMPORAL GRID OF GERMAN EPIGRAMS

Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of texts of German epigrams, as well as to the characterization of their temporal grid. The inextricable link between language and culture, their interdependence and conditionality have given rise to a sufficient number of linguistic phenomena. phenomena. The epigram is a separate genre that successfully combines poetic form, sharp satirical character and absolute thematic diversity. The object of this study is the texts of German epigrams of the 16th-19th centuries, and the subject is its temporal grid. It should be noted immediately that, despite the wealth of authors who have worked in this genre in previous centuries, the modern epigram is not very popular, which, in turn, causes a rather limited number of works on this subject, and, consequently, the relevance of this intelligence. The epigram is a small satirical poem that mocks any person or social phenomenon; inscription on statues, altars and other objects dedicated to the gods, as well as on tombstones. Presentation and pre-natal forms dominate the peculiarities of the use of temporal remedies in German epigrams. Presentation manifests phenomena such as human relationships, character traits, which, on the one hand, are correlated with a certain amount of time and specific people, and on the other hand, show constancy. The preterit depicts the preceding moments of speech in the past, without linking them to the present. The large array of epigrams demonstrates in its texts a combination of several temporal forms, which suggests that epigrams act as a genre in which not only the characteristic of the person, but also the description of the actions that he or she is taking now is central. We can conclude that all temporal forms, dominated by present and pre-territorial forms, represent the temporal grid of German verse folk riddle.
