Free Indirect Speech in Translation (by the Material of Russian Translations of G. Flaubert’s Novel “Madame Bovary”)

In his famous novel, published in 1856, Flaubert describes the circumstances of a failed surgical procedure ending up in a major amputation. Flaubert, whose father was a physician in Rouen/France, mocks at the medical profession and its victims and proves himself to be compassionate at the same time. About his writing, he explained: "I only measure shit into doses." ("Je ne fais autre chose que de doser de la merde.")

This monograph deals with the problem of functioning peculiarities of graphic expressive means and grammar means in the language of modern Russian advertising. This research work treats the advertising discourse as a composite indirect speech act. Active use of adverbial modifiers of manner — deverbatives, elliptical and indefinite personal one-member sentences is characteristic of modern advertising texts. A most distinguishing feature of a modern advertising text is a mixture of Cyrillic and Latin fonts that contributes to the manifestation of an expressive potential of the application. The monograph is aimed at students of Philology, students major in Management and Marketing, masters, postgraduates, staff of higher educational establishments and all those who are interested in the Russian language.
