Abstract
The article presents the remarks on the occurrence of proper names (onyms) in the poetic language of V.A. Zhukovsky (1783-1852), primarily denoting Russian and foreign writers. As a result, it is revealed Zhukovsky uses a total of about 3 thousand onyms mentioning then all almost 17 thousand times. The Russian authors most mentioned by Zhukovsky for various artistic and ideological reasons are P.A. Vyazemsky (19 times), D.N. Bludov (13), A.F. Voeykov (12), N.M. Karamzin (8), D.I. Khvostov (8), Boyan (8), V.L. Pushkin (7), A.I. Turgenev (6), K.N. Batyushkov (5), I.I. Dmitriev (5), G.R. Derzhavin (4), A.S. Shishkov (3); the foreign authors mentioned in his works are Pindar (12), Homer (8), Horatio (5), Vergil (4), Tibullus (4), Goethe (4), T. Gray (4), and J. Delisle At the same time, Zhukovsky, in contrast to many contemporaries, does not write directly, for example, about Alexander Pushkin and Byron, which is intriguing in terms of lack of their mentions in the works of Zhukovsky, who is traditionally proclaimed the -first Russian romantic?. In functional and aesthetic terms, proper names, in particular the nicknames of writers and participants of literary associations, often serve as a means of ironic assessment of the poet, creating a mockingly playful discourse in the spirit of -Arzamas Galimatia (Gibberish)?. The methodology of the article is based on a comparative analysis of the elements of the poetic language of the most prominent writers of the late XVIII - first half of the XIX century, which became possible after the appearance of a series original dictionaries varying in their typology (from N.M. Karamzin to N.P. Ogarev).
