ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF A. N. KARPOV'S SYNTACTIC IDEAS IN THE XXI CENTURY

The article analyzes the scientific achievements of Professor A. N. Karpov, Doctor of Phi-lology, in the field of research of "multicomponent unities" – structures consisting of several sentences united by one theme and syntactic coherence. A. N. Karpov's works have made a great contribution to the study of the linguistics of the text, his ideas have been continued in modern works on the complex syntactic whole (CCC) – the highest unit of syntax, on its forms and functions of the semantic part of the whole text. In modern linguistics, the CCC is analyzed as a transitional structure between a com-plex multicomponent sentence and a text, between a sentence and an attached part that has been dis-connected for the purpose of actualization (attachment, parcellation). A. N. Karpov's fruitful develop-ment of the structure of the period also continues, the study of which turned out to be extremely relevant in the context of studying the structural, semantic and philological analysis of literary text. It turned out that the type of CCC is also related to its content, it is within its boundaries that a descrip-tion, narrative, and sometimes reasoning are formed. The variants of the combination of structures-types in the CCC determine the idiosyncrasy of the writer. Keywords are distributed in the structure of the text by semantic parts, thematically linking them. Awareness of the integrity of the semantic part is associated with the allocation of keywords in it, thematically "stitching" it. The first sentence of the semantic part contains words with a generalized meaning, which is revealed in subsequent sentences using pronouns, single-root words, synonyms, antonyms, etc. It became possible to distinguish the narrative and the actual narrative within the plot. The narrative is more abstract, voluminous, broad-er: This is a text that conveys information about real or fictional events taking place in a time se-quence, and the linguistic means that organize it are broader than just narratives. For example, the narrative of Pushkin's prose is dense, it is as informative as possible: behind each sentence of such a narrative there is a voluminous cultural, historical and plot context, an apperceptive background, this movement of life itself. In conclusion, the signs of a complex syntactic whole are listed.
