ABSTRACT

The article is devoted to the study of the correlation of extraordinary stylistic figures in Russian and English: oxymoron

and catachresis. In modern linguistics, the communicative function of language and speech has become a very

important problem. Because of this, stylistic methods and figures are increasingly popular among modern linguists.

Many different works are devoted to oxymoron and catachresis, which indicates the interest of researchers in these

phenomena. Oxymoron is referred to different stylistic categories as paradox, irony and catachresis. Some

researchers also believe that oxymoron is one of the varieties of paradox.

A great number of researchers think that catachresis and oxymoron are very similar in terms of structure and

semantics. Indeed, some even attribute the oxymoron to catachresis. Although the former is based on a combination

of contrasting words, the latter is based on a combination of words of distant concepts. The article will attempt to

find similar and distinctive features of the two figures of speech.

Many works consider oxymoron as a stylistic figure of

speech, which is produced by combining two

contrasting words. For example, cheerfully depressed,

merry sadness, cold fire. Not a few writers give their

preference to this particular figure. For example,

Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" is full of colorful

oxymorons of various kinds. “Loving hate. Anything of

nothing first create.” With these lines, the writer

means `to hate someone and love at the same time`.

Traditionally, an oxymoron implies a stylistic

phenomenon based on a combination of two lexical

units that contradict each other. According to

Professor Flayih, an oxymoron is a figure of speech in

which opposite or contradictory words, terms, phrases

or ideas work together to create a rhetorical effect in a

paradoxical way. For example, “despairing hope,

tender cruelty, glad mourning and sad joy” (Flayih,

2009).

Oxymoron consists of words of opposite meanings in

various parts of speech, including both heterogeneous

(“remember forgetting that” (Clara

Barton)) and

single-

root words (“faith unfaithful” (Alfred, Lord

Tennyson)), as well as associative opposite words (“Of

melancholy merriment.” (Lord Byron)). This feature

distinguishes oxymoron from the usual antonymic

figures and the stylistic figure of contradiction in

particular. The presence of antonyms in a contrasting

opposition is not always necessary, and the words

involved in this opposition are not necessarily

antonyms (Glukhikh, 1995).

Based on this, we can say that oxymoron is not just an

antonymous pair of words, but a special stylistic device

that combines opposite concepts and creates a new,

dialectically complex concept. Unlike antithesis,

oxymoron creates something new and maintains a

logical connection between its components. In

addition, an oxymoron is a cultural and psychological

phenomenon that overcomes a real contradiction

through language, causing a momentary shock in the

mind, which is accustomed to clichés and ordinary

language constructions [Kagarlitsky, 1990]. In this

sense, an oxymoron acts as a way to change our vision

of the world and to have an exciting effect on the

reader or listener. Moreover, the connection of

oxymoron with such concepts as paradox, irony,

contrast, absurdity is quite natural.

However, the question arises about the logic and

paradoxical nature of the oxymoron. According to the

literary encyclopedia, oxymoron is a type of paradox.

R. Lachmann interprets oxymoron as something

identical and opposite to itself, combining two

mutually exclusive definitions [Lakhman, 1997].

However, the analysis shows that the illogicality and

paradoxical nature of the oxymoron is conditional and

ephemeral.

In fact, an oxymoron expresses the complex essence

of a single whole, denoted not by opposite

components. The formal and logical-semantic dual

unity and at the same time the integrity of the

oxymoron make it an extraordinary and individual

stylistic device. An oxymoron is always catchy and non-

standard, bringing a completely new perspective on

phenomena to the presented world and scale.

Akhmanova defines catachresis as an “incorrect” use

of a word or expression, “... which incorrectly explains

the intended meaning...” (Akhmanova, 2001):

"The new CEO's strategy of leading from behind was

met with skepticism by the board of directors." (Kim, &

Mauborgne, 2005). This example refers to setting a

strategy without being responsible for making

decisions.

There are different interpretations of catachresis. It

usually refers to stylistic devices, also called tropes or

figures of speech. Catachresis, like many other figures,

suffers from chaos in the terminology of stylistics. This

disorder manifests itself in different terms used to

denote the same technique, or, conversely, in a single

term to denote different techniques. For researchers

and readers of dictionaries, this presents great

difficulties when several different speech phenomena

belong to the same category of classification.

(Skovorodnikov, 2004).

To include catachresis as a stylistic (rhetorical) figure,

we have used definitions from several sources. They

emphasize the figurative aspect of this rhetorical

figure. According to the authors, catachresis is used to

denote an idea that does not have its own word, so the

word takes on a figurative meaning. "Catachresis is a

figure of speech that is often considered a mistake, but

in fact it is a deliberate and effective device used by

skilled writers to achieve specific rhetorical effects."

(Morgan, 2016)

The basic concepts of linguistic stylistics are "stylistic

device", "syntactic figure" and "tropes". Many

researchers have noted that it is necessary to clearly

distinguish between these concepts, and even

attempted to make such a distinction. Let's summarize

the characteristics of an oxymoron and analyze them

in order to determine the general and distinctive

features of this stylistic figure of speech compared to

catachresis.

LITERATURE REVIEW

As mentioned above, oxymoron and catachresis have

been of interest among many researchers for quite

some time.

The greatest number of affecting works was found in

dissertations and monographs of Russian researchers,

such as G. Kopnin, and F. Artyomova, N. Pavlovich, E. T.

Bochina, V. Ovsyannikov. Leading researchers G.

Kuregyan, E. Shestakova L. Tatanova touch upon

oxymoron,

emphasizing

the

linguo-stylistic

interpretation and the antonymic correlation of this

topic with other stylistic means. Also, E. Atayeva and G.

Kuregyan devoted the topic to structural and semantic

classification. All works are inherently different from

each other and carry useful discoveries of the author.

The work carried out by the Uzbek linguist V.

Kamoliddinova, based on methodological and

semantic features, also developed this topic deeper.

Oxymoron and catachresis were also mentioned in the

works of foreign researchers such as R. Gibbs and L.

Kearney, D. Leach, K. Krippendorf, J. Shen, M. Flyich.

The works of foreign writers focus more on linguo-

stylistic interpretation and structural classification.

MATERIAL AND RESEARCH METHODS

The article will use a number of methods of linguistic

analysis, including the traditional descriptive method,

the method of contextual analysis, the comparative

method, the method of conceptual integration and

cultural analysis in order to study oxymoron and

catachresis. These methods will be used to gain a full

understanding of the complexities of oxymoron and

catachresis of their meaning. By combining these

methods, the article aims to provide a multifaceted and

in-depth analysis of stylistic figures.

There are two understandings of oxymoron: traditional

(narrow) and wide. In the traditional sense, an

oxymoron is a combination of words expressing

opposite and contradictory concepts, based on the use

of antonyms proper. Some scholars view the

oxymoron as a figure, others as a trope. At present, the

problem of distinguishing between a path and a figure

has not been fully resolved. In the Dictionary of Literary

Terms, edited by L.I. Timofeev and S.V. Turaev, an

oxymoron is described as an artistic trope that creates

a new semantic quality, combining definitions and

concepts that are opposite in meaning (Timofeeva;

Turaeva, 1974).

It is important to use an oxymoron with full

understanding. This will help to better understand the

nature of the original images that contradict each

other, as well as determine the place and meaning of

the oxymoron among other stylistic figures and tropes.

The definition of an oxymoron as “a stylistic figure that

combines not only two contrasting, but also

contradictory

semantic

wo

rds

...”

(Stylistic

Encyclopedic Dictionary of the RY, 2003) is the most

common. The principle of a hidden ornament is used in

an oxymoron, where one of its elements leads to

another, and pairing and symmetry are mandatory

features. This refers to the semantic or even syntactic

ornament, and not to the sound.

Let us dwell in more detail on the meaning of

oxymoron, which is associated with opposites.

Opposites intertwined within the framework of an

oxymoron cannot exist separately from each other,

otherwise the contrast of the figure will be lost. They

not only mirror each other, but are strongly connected

to each other. One image is hidden inside another.

Between them there is a "sliding" value that moves

between both poles - positive and negative. As R.

Lachmann said, this doubled figure, or double-figure, is

characterized by aggressiveness and a connecting

point that connects two phenomena that are directly

opposite to each other (Lachmann, 1997).

A significant difference between catachresis and

oxymoron is that an oxymoron is built on the use of

opposing units, while catachresis consists of words

that do not combine.

Combinations of words that contradict each other are

not considered errors in the language, but are an

opportunity to reveal the hidden possibilities of

language forms. Such phrases as “grimly gay”,

“honour rooted in dishonor”, “faith unfaithful”,

“falsely true” do not violate the logical connection

between words, since they reflect the real relationship

between objects and their features and are used as

units of secondary nomination.

The logical-semantic law of disjunction regulates the

understanding of attributive oxymoron combinations,

where one of the contradictory features is subject to

the combined semantics of the combinations,

restoring its logical balance (Shishkina, 1991). An

oxymoron is similar to an epithet in its linguistic nature,

paying attention to certain features of what is being

described and expressing the subjective attitude of the

author. But unlike the epithet, which concretizes the

signs of an object or phenomenon, an oxymoron also

opens up contradictions in objective reality. Oxymoron

continues to be a separate stylistic device, being an

attributive phrase.

Both figures, catachresis and oxymoron, are based on

the stylistic technique of combining incompatible

concepts, which allows expressing some aspects of the

depicted subject. When forming a catachresis figure,

the opposite sides of the object are combined in one

phrase, and when using an oxymoron, the illogical or

antonymic characteristic of one aspect of the object

hits the eye, due to which both components of the

figure become connected and mutually related as the

main component and dependent components,

respectively. For example, in the case of the phrase

"magnificent catastrophe", the combination of words

connects opposite concepts, which makes it an

example of an oxymoron. Also, an oxymoron can

include objectively existing characteristics and serve

for their subjective assessment. As Khazagerov notes,

an oxymoron is a complex figure of speech, consisting

of the main and auxiliary parts, which are connected by

subordination relations (Khazagerov, 1984). The main

part of the figure compares two concepts, covering

both similarities and differences, and the auxiliary part

indicates contrasting features and is externally

connected with the main part, although it conflicts

with it.

An oxymoron consists of words of opposite meanings

in various parts of speech, including both

heterogeneous (“remember forgetting that” (Clara

Barton)) and single-

root words (“faith unfaithful”

(Alfred, Lord Tennyson)), as well as associative

opposite words (“Of melancholy fun.” (Lord Byron)).

This feature distinguishes the oxymoron from the usual

antonymic figures and the stylistic figure of

contradiction in particular. The presence of antonyms

in a contrasting opposition is not always necessary, and

the words involved in this opposition are not

necessarily antonyms.

Based on this, we can say that an oxymoron is not just

an antonymous pair of words, but a special stylistic

device that combines opposite concepts and creates a

new, dialectically complex concept. Unlike antithesis,

oxymoron creates something new and maintains a

logical connection between its components. In

addition, an oxymoron is a cultural and psychological

phenomenon that overcomes a real contradiction

through language, causing a momentary shock in the

mind, which is accustomed to clichés and ordinary

language constructions. In this sense, an oxymoron

acts as a way to change our vision of the world and to

have an exciting effect on the reader or listener.

Moreover, the connection of oxymoron with such

concepts as paradox, irony, contrast, absurdity is quite

natural.

An oxymoron, like many stylistic figures, has many

meanings, which are usually grouped together. The

significance of the oxymoron syntagma depends on

the context, and the opposition in the context plays a

major role in the normative perception of this group of

combinations (Pavlovich, 1982). The context fixes the

presence of the effect of incompatibility of semantic

features and contains a description of the conditions

under which it can be eliminated.

We are dealing with an oxymoron form, which is a

formal expression of an oxymoron, but its semantics

does not imply opposition and interaction of

opposites, which does not give a new reflection of the

phenomenon (Shestakova, 1994).

When analyzing oxymorons, it is necessary to take into

account the broad context and emotional and

expressive mood of the poem. The oxymoronic form is

close to irony, metaphor, euphemism and allegory, and

the appearance of the oxymoronic form is due to the

same reasons as the proximity of oxymorons to irony,

i.e. the desire to use a phenomenon that causes a need,

but does not violate a predetermined being.

As for catachresis, the meaning conveyed by

catachresis depends on the personal perception of the

reader and can be understood without any context.

"The heavy silence pressed down on us like a weight".

Silence is neither heavy nor light. This example of

catachresis is similar to an oxymoron in that the

components of the phrase "heavy silence" are

incompatible, at the same time there is no contrast in

the combination of words, which distinguishes

catachresis from an oxymoron.

Catachresis, in turn, is interpreted in different ways.

Some call it a trope, a figure of speech, or a kind of

metaphor. "Chatachresis is an extreme form of

metaphor which uses an analogy that is so far-fetched

and stretched that its literal meaning is totally

distorted" (Harris, 2014). "She swam through the

treacle of life" - This metaphorical expression is a

catachresis, as life cannot literally be like treacle (a type

of syrup). "The ambition to corporatize environmental

activism has led to a form of greenwashing that

obscures the true nature of environmental problems."

In this example, "greenwashing" is used as a

catachresis to describe the act of environmental hiding

problems under a guise of corporate social

responsibility.

Quintilian was the first to note the importance of

distinguishing between catachresis and metaphor,

since where there was no name at all, catachresis is

applicable, and metaphor replaces one name with

another. Catachresis fills in gaps in the dictionary using

new meanings for old words. Some consider

catachresis an abuse, but it can become a linguistic

metaphor that is habitually used in speech. Metaphor,

on the other hand, transfers meaning from the named

to the named, and catachresis if from the named to the

completely devoid of a name (Freindberg, 1996).

Metaphors can wear off and become new meanings

for old words, as their repeated use can create a

catachresis. For example, the word "legs" in the

expression "table legs" became the new meaning of

the word "legs" as it was reused and worn out over

time. However, some scholars see the use of obsolete

metaphors as a sign of poor language and irrelevance,

as it can lead to stylistic sloppiness. In addition, some

scholars consider the use of obsolete metaphors to be

comical and a vice of language (Molino 1979; Bally 1961;

Gvozdev 1955).

We use M. Riffater's definition of a stylistic context,

according to which it is a segment of a literary text

disturbed by an element that is unexpected for a given

context and creates a stylistic effect (Riffaterre, 1960).

Riffater defines stylistic context through properties

such as inseparability from a stylistic device, the ability

to become the norm for other devices, and variability.

He distinguishes between micro and macro contexts,

which depend on the external or internal attitude to

the stylistic device. Macro context can enhance or

weaken the stylistic effect.

"Good night, good night! parting is such sweet sorrow,

/ That I shall say good night till it be morrow"

This oxymoron combines two opposite concepts -

"sweetness" and "sadness". In the context of the play,

Romeo and Juliet love each other, but their love is

impossible due to the feud between their families.

Before parting, they talk about their love and how hard

it will be for them to part. Romeo says: "Good night,

good night! parting is such sweet sorrow, / That I shall

say good night till it be morrow" morning will not

come."

In this context, "sweet sorrow" reflects the conflicting

feelings of love and sadness that Romeo and Juliet

experience when they part. The oxymoron enhances

this contrast between the two concepts and helps to

convey the complexity and contradictory feelings of

the characters in the play.

Oxymoronic expressions always have a justification in

the context or are explained further in the text. The

task of the context is to facilitate the perception of

unusual constructions, such as oxymorons, by

combining them with actions and design. The context

creates an emotional-semantic background that helps

the reader understand the appearance of unusual

expressions. The context also determines exactly

which meanings are combined in an oxymoron and

which alternatives are used in a given text.

RESULTS

In the light of above-mentioned catachresis and

oxymoron have a similar feature - the union of lexemes

that at first glance seem to be incompatible in

meaning. However, the difference between them lies

in the fact that catachresis does not contrast, and

oxymoron contrasts the compared phenomena.

Word combinations that make up statements usually

play the role of characterizing elements, often acting

as a predicate.

The context plays a decisive role in revealing the

semantics of an oxymoron, including its emotional-

evaluative aspect, while the meaning of catachresis

often depends on the reader's personal experience

and the associations evoked.

The commonality of oxymoron and catachresis is

expressed in the fact that they are both aimed at

depicting unusualness and exclusivity, combining in

the text what is incompatible in life.

Features of combinations of oxymorons, which are

characterized by incompatibility of components in

terms of the level of lexical semantics, determine their

stylistic meaning and possible applications in the text,

which convey the information invested by the author

in such a stylistic device and cause a psychological

reaction in the reader. An oxymoron is often used in

poetry to describe human feelings, as it allows one to

express the complexity and inconsistency of these

states (Schuplyakova, 1995). The main function of an

oxymoron is to convey the author's assessment or

attitude towards the described object. He vividly and

briefly expresses the unusual or exceptional state of a

person or ironically evaluates the events described,

while creating a semantic-stylistic focus of the depicted

image. The use of an oxymoron allows us to present

the described object from a new and unusual side, and

its multi-layeredness additionally expresses the

author's consciousness. They are necessary to create

emotional depth and include elements of dialogue in a

one-dimensional world (Shestakova, 1994).
