DESPRE LIMBAJUL METAFORIC ÎN SUFLETE MOARTE DE GOGOL
ABOUT METAPHORICAL LANGUAGE IN GOGOL'S DEAD SOULS

Summary/Abstract: The language of a literary text contains parts of the conceptual phrasematic system, well settled at the level of the linguo-cognitive consciousness of a community, which an author uses to get as close as possible to the surrounding reality or to create new worlds. Nikolai Gogol, promoter of the Natural School, creates very real pictures in Dead Souls using conceptual phrases from the everyday language of his time. We have identified and classified some of these important phrases, without which this novel would not be believable. Some of these expressions pose problems when translating them into another language, as it is necessary to identify beforehand the area they come from but also the period in which they were used.
