SYNTACTIC TYPOLOGY OF TAUTOLOGICAL CONSTRUCTIONS

The purpose of the article is to study the structural (syntactic) aspect of tautological formations, build a structural concept and thereby prove their semantic significance, as well as their informative interpretation. The object of our analysis comprises tautological expressions and their pragmatic functions based on the material of publicistic and artistic discourses. The subject of analysis is the comparison of the transaction (transmission) of the author's intention and the «communicative isolation» of the meaningful lexical unit –  tautology. The result of the study is the recognition of the normality of the use of this phenomenon, but subject to certain conditions.
