growing interest of linguists in this country and elsewhere in functional
grammar (see works by A. O. Zahnitko and
his linguistic school, I. R. Vykhovanets’,
K. H. Horodens’ka etc.) An important place
belongs here to studies realized within the theoretical and methological
framework of the field approach, such as works of O. I. Bondar, O. V. Bondarko and others. Making a major contribution to the understanding of how the grammar of
natural languages operates in speech and how it interact with lexis in its
speech realization, field stuides, however, so far tend to ignore one
significant aspect of field structure and functioning, namely, the secondary, or
derivative, semantic variants of fields’ constituents, both grammatical and
functional, thus overlooking the role these variants play in field organization
and actualization. The object of study in this paper is
some structural and functional properties of temporal microfields (i.e. temporal
fields as realized in sentences); more specifically, I will analyze some
lexical features of these microfields’ structure that can be involved in
forming the temporal perspective of the sentence (or, possibly, some larger
text fragment) by means of temporal transposition, or temporal meaning
transference (translatio temporum in
terms of traditional rhetoric). My goal is to show that adverbs of time can be
used in such a way as well as what their secondary semantic variants are, and
what conditions and constraints are that influence the use of these variants as
constituents of temporal microfields. Illustrations will mostly be drawn from
various fields of the usage of Modern Ukrainian, English, Polish and Russian. In analyzing this material, I will take
into account the inner form of secondary variants, including their motivation
and, consequently, the character of their relation to the underlying item’s
primary meaning. I will also examine relevant features of the semantic
structure of sentences they occur in, i.e. their immediate context, and within
it, their relations to other items within temporal microfields. Yet, arguably,
contextual identification in this case should not only limit itself to such
narrow contexts, but should also consider wider, discourse contexts, such as
language registers and styles. Taken together, these variables will provide
additional parameters to be used in temporal (and possibly other) microfield
structure description and analysis, making the latter more detailed and
informative. The (functional-grammatical) field
is commonly defined as a group of grammatical and lexical linguistic items as
well as their combinations which belong to the same semantic category (e.g.
temporality or personality) and interact due to
their semantic functions (Bondarko, “Osnovaniya funktsionalnoy grammatiki”,
11). As such, the functional-grammatical field is one of means of
structural organization of linguistic items within the language system. A fundamental
feature of field-internal systemic organization is the division of fields into
the center (or nucleus) and the periphery (Bondar 52–54). Realized in speech, functional-grammatical fields are manifested by
contextual, or micro-, fields, this manifestation characterized by regularities
concerning, in particular, the selection and configuration of a field’s central
and peripheral constituents. The transference of temporal meaning is the
expression of a temporal meaning by the use of an item with another one. Such
transference is made by means of transposition, usually regarded as the use of
a tense form of the verb in a meaning and, correspondingly, context that differ
from its primary, or the most usual, ones. It is this new context that provides
indication as to the identity of a new, contextually determined meaning of a
transferred item. Although variable with respect to individual items forming
it, the context of specific transferred meanings at the same time has the
invariant semantic function. In tense transposition, this function is performed
by lexical items, cf. the following example of the present tense denoting past
events and therefore called the historical
present (praesens historicum): Ukrainian Іду я вчора вулицею, раптом бачу… Here the verbs in the present
express not the present time reference but the semantic feature “perceiver”
prototypically associated with the present tense, whereas the adverb учора indicates the actual time of the
situation referred to by the sentence and, accordingly, the temporal plane into
which the verb forms of the present tense are
transferred, and in doing this, it indicates the contextual temporal reference
of actions denoted by these verbs. Correspondingly, the structural
scheme of the temporal microfield featuring transposition is traditionally
thought to consist of a transposed and semantically transformed grammatical
nucleus, on one hand, and, on the other, peripheral lexical items denoting
actual time reference and operating as the latter’s contextual identifiers
(Yermolenko “Obraznyje sredstva morfologii”, 9–11). The question
I am going to ask in this article is this: is it really the only possible and
therefore invariable contextual scheme of temporal transposition and also of
the distribution of functions between the microfield’s grammatical and lexical
components? My contention is, another scheme is also possible, in which the
lexical component is transferred, while the grammatical, i.e. the verb tense
form, plays the role of the contextual identifier of a secondary meaning. If this is
the case, then how is this alternative scheme actualized? Say, if it is
perfectly grammatical to say in Ukrainian Іду
я вчора по вулиці, раптом бачу…, then will the “counterexample”, in which the
roles of the microfield components are reverted, be equally grammatical: for
instance, can the sentence Ішов я
сьогодні по вулиці, раптом побачив…
be interpreted as referring to events of some previous day? As far as my speech intuition and experience can be trusted, the
latter example leaves the impression of ungrammaticality. However, one should
not overlook the fact that the usage illustrated by the first example is
associated with colloquial everyday speech, so that the hypothetical and
ungrammatical one is by default related to this kind of speech as well.
However, different temporal transpositions can differ with regard to their
stylistic markers (connotations) and are correspondingly correlated with
different communicative-functional discourse varieties, everyday colloquial
speech being only one of these varieties (Shmeliov 3–32). Generally speaking, it is methodologically expedient that the
description of a linguistic entity usage should correlate its semantic
variation with discourse varieties these variants occur in (Yermolenko
“Epistemichno-komunikatyvna perspektyva dyskursu”, 141–148). It was M. M. Bakhtin (writing as Voloshinov) who noted, referring to what he termed
„sociologic method”, that the lack of correlation between grammar and stylistic
in using this method is methodologically perilous (Voloshinov 150). From this
viewpoint, the emotionally expressive use of the present tense to denote the
past time, as exemplified by the above sentence, is stylistically restricted to
conversational speech as well as its written reflections in letters, epistolary
fiction, memoirs and the like, and also in the narrative of the fictional „author”
imitating oral colloquial narrative discourse (Prokopovich 261–277). As regards another variety of the present tense used to denote past
events in scholarly or popular historical discourse, it differs from the former
stylistically by lacking its subjective expressiveness as well as by being
generally detached from the situation of close communication (one might regard
this variant as a genuinely unmarked – in the Jakobsonian sense – present
tense), cf.: Ukrainian 1857 р. Шевченко повертається із
заслання… (for a detailed discussion, see Yermolenko “Semiotychna
struktura temporalnoho deyksysu”). It is
turning to other discourse varieties than those related to conversational
communication or imitating it, that instances can be detected of temporal
microfields, in which lexical temporal transposition is combined with grammatical
tense contextual identifiers. Consider the following examples drawn from
fictional “author’s” narrative (not imitating oral conversational narrative)
and documentary prose, in which the deictical adverb today is employed alongside verb tense forms referring to past time
events, real or fictional: English There were other voices in the
dark place where he went when he prayed; he heard them frequently while he was
there – usually distant, like the dim voices you sometimes heard in the
background when you made a long-distance call, sometimes more clearly. Today
one of them was very clear indeed (St. King); Once again they were ushered
into that cheerless... room, which, today, smelled faintly of oiled machinery (L. Sanders); …the site of Dwight D. Eisenhower’s
home during the Second World War, which I had by chance recently discovered lay
more or less along the same route I was taking today (B. Bryzon). My translating these fragments in Ukrainian does not produce
sentences, which are to be prefixed with asterisk, cf.: У тій темній місцині, куди він
потрапляв, коли молився, бували й інші голоси... Сьогодні один із них був дуже розбірливим; знову їх завели до тієї безрадісної…
кімнати, де сьогодні слабко
пахло машинним маслом; місце оселі
Двайта Д. Ейзенгауера під час Другої світової війни, яке я випадково
відкрив нещодавно, лежало приблизно біля того маршруту, який я обрав сьогодні.
The same applies to the example containing the adjective derived from the adverb with that deictical meaning, cf. Polish Odczytywał przez binokle ze swego notatnika rozkład zajęć na dzień dzisiejszy (B. Prus); пор.: Одягнувши
окуляри, він читав зі свого записника розклад занять на сьогоднішній день. Similar
examples can occur in free indirect speech representing inner monologue (yet it
should be emphasized that the linguistic character of this monologue can be
rather arbitrary and variable, vascillating between inner speech proper and the
expression of “stream of consciousness”, i.e. thoughts as well as wordless
feelings, visual images, and impressions, and conveying in this way the
perceptual viewpoint of the literary character, which in such a case replaces
that of the narrator, cf. O. S. Akhmanova’s definition of this kind of narrative: “A linguo-stylistic
device serving in fiction to depict emotional experience of a character and
permitting to replace the description of actual events by the thoughts,
impressions etc. caused by them and expressed in the character’s inner speech” (Akhmatova 239) (on the transposition of perceptual viewpoint, see Yermolenko „Person in
artistic discourse” 25–26). Merging with the fictional author’s narrative in the past tense, in
particular, in cases when it is impossible unambiguously to attribute the inner
voice either to the narrator or the character, this kind of narrative also
provides contextual environment for lexical temporal transposition, cf. Enlglish So he had made the reservations,
and today – if it was still today – they had been on U.S. 50, the so-called loneliest highway in
America, headed west across Nevada to the High Sierra (St. King). The meaning of
the temporal adverbs in these illustrations cannot be identified with their
primary meaning, yet neither should they be treated as homonymous. Instead, the former is to be considered secondary and derivative, and
accordingly defined as follows: „temporal reference from the perceptive
viewpoint of the moment in the past that is synchronous with reported events”.
Detecting and identifying such meanings of lexical temporal deicticals can be
felt as somewhat unusual not only because they are secondary rather than
primary and the most habitual; one should also take into consideration that it
may be so because they occur not in everyday speech, where the contrast between
the narrator’s present and the narrated past is self-evident for interlocutors,
but in other kinds of discourse whose inherent characteristics make this
contrast arbitrary and a matter of stylistic choice rather than that of actual
time reference (on fictional time, see Ingarden 110–112; Yermolenko “Deyaki pytannia gramatychnoyi semantyky” 43–49). Other temporal adverbial deicticals as well as their derivatives, too, can
be transposed in this way, cf. Ukrainian Бертгольд перевів швидкий погляд
з обличчя прибулого на посвідчення, що лежало на столі. Так, безперечно, перед
ним оригінал, з якого зроблено фотознімок. От тільки волосся зачесане не назад,

рискою розділяв проділ. Від цього риси обличчя здаються ще виразніше

простудившейся зимой во время прогулки и теперь погибавшей от воспаления легких. Доктор Иванов не взял ее в больницу на попечение фельдшера, а сам
ухаживал за ребенком. Сейчас эта девочка (правда, сильно измененная годами)
часто гуляет со мною аллеями киевского университетского Ботанического сада (Ю. Булаховская);
И полозья санок, как коньки, засвистели

сзади уже освещал поле только что поднявшийся светлый стеклянный месяц. Теперь они неслись в Гренландию (И. А. Бунин);
English Delaney could see her triangular

Tomorrow they would strike the

every instant of the time that had elapsed since he'd stood in Ethel's

(M. H. Clark); Russian …Появился в моих дверях Демьян Кузьмич, расшаркался и вручил мне приглашение
пожаловать завтра в четыре часа дня в театр. Завтра не было дождя. Завтра был
день с крепким осенним заморозком. Стуча каблуками по асфальту, волнуясь, я шел
в театр (M. A. Булгаков) (note that Bulgakov, as different from Foster, uses завтра with reference to the time point synchronous with the narrated event): Завтра была война (a Soviet film’s title); 11 мая газета «Рабочий», где в это
время служил Булгаков, сообщала, как и
другие газеты, о вчерашнем отлете Есенина с Айседорой Дункан в Кенигсберг, а 14 мая
«Накануне» уже печатает отклики о пребывании поэта за границей (М. О. Чудакова)
(here, as in the example from Y. Dold-Mykhaylyk’s novel, the transferred meaning of the adjectival deictical in the first of the two co-ordinate clauses of this sentence is repeated, mutatis mutandis, by the present tense form in the second); пол. Zobaczył pusty pokój z
rozgrzebanym tapczanem i resztkami wczorajszej kolacji na stole (K. Brandys). Since temporal adverbs are units of the lexical system, and since such
instances of their use as given above are typical, it would be natural to
expect corresponding usages to be registered in dictionaries. Examining them,
however, proves this not to be the case, the lexicographical registration of
these semantic variants being, at best, inconsistent or, more frequently,
absent. For instance, Distionary of modern standard Russian, while having
examples of Russian теперь with past time reference (cf. Он там
хозяин, это ясно; И Тане уж не так ужасно; и любопытная теперь немного
растворила дверь; Никогда ему еще не было жаль матери, как именно теперь, и
никогда он так не желал ее видеть, как в настоящую минуту), gives them as illustrations of
this adverb’s primary meaning “at the same time; at this moment” (DMSR 15; 298); yet for сейчас, no such
examples are provided, although the transposition of this adverb to the context
of the past is quite grammatical and wide-spread too, cf.: Только сейчас он
почувствовал себя
в относительной
безопасности (А. Бестер). Webster’s Third International
Dictionary defines the sixth meaning of now
as follows: “at the time under consiteration; at the time referred to” (the
people now proceeded to give him
almost every important honor with their gift) (WTID 1546), yet no
corresponding secondary meanings are assigned to such deictical temporal
adverbials as today чи tomorrow. Similarly, in New English-Russian
Dictionary, the third meaning of now, marked “in narrative”, is
explicated as “then, at that moment, at that time” (now he tried another plan, the war was now practically concluded, now Caesar marched East) (NERD 2;
110), but there is no indication given that today or tonight can be used in the
same way, although cf. the following examples: …he began seeing her home after class. Tonight,
Thursday, there was no class, but Tim was coming to fetch Pamela when the
library closed at nine o'clock and take her out to dinner. It was now eight-fifteen…
(G. McCallum
2). In The Dictionary
of the Polish Language ed. by W. Doroszewski, the entry teraz has, along with other illustrations, these ones as well: Jak ongi w szkole do wakacji, tak teraz liczyłem dni do odjazdu; Pod stosem listów leżały zaschnięte
róże: jedna niegdyś biała, druga ongi czerwona. Teraz obie były żółte, but all of them exemplify, according to the
compilers, the same meaning “at that moment, at the present moment, now,
currently” (DPLD 8; 437). As temporal deicticals, all these
items share, as their common semantic feature, orientation towards the moment of actual oral speech as their reference point, and
therefore also towards the speaker and the perceptual viewpoint associated
with him. The same applies to the present tense as a grammatical deictical.
Also, they all can be transposed to the past time context, this transposition
demonstrating the same semantic motivation, based on the metaphorical identification
of the narrated past with the present as perceived by the speaker. Arguably
therefore, underlying the transposition of both these adverbials as well as
present tense verb forms, at the deeper sentence semantic structure level there
is metaphor “praesens pro praeterito”, which at the
surface structure level can be manifested grammatically or lexically, or even
both grammatically and lexically (but not in the same clause), differing in
that adverbs are capable of more specific, as compared with the grammatical
tense, temporal indications. At the same time, lexical and grammatical deicticals
metaphorically denoting the past seem to be in a sort of (not very strict)
complementary distribution with respect to discourse varieties they occur in,
oral colloquial narration generally favoring the historical present, and
written language varieties, such as fiction and documentary prose, preferring
temporal metaphor realized by lexical items. Yet transpositions of adverbial
deicticals are not limited either to this stylistic register, metaphoric
motivation, or the plane of the past. They also can be transposed in the
context of the repeated, generalized, and even virtual present, cf. Russian – Об
усах что-то сказано? Да. – «Черные и густые». – Больше ничего? –
Больше ничего. Да ведь усы вообще не примета. Сегодня есть, а завтра сбрил (A. Адамов). In this example, the adverb сегодня and завтра can refer to the
feature of the specific present situation discussed by the interlocutors, and
at the same time they, and the sentence containing them, can be interpreted in
a wider, generally applicable sense which temporally and spatially goes beyond
the limits of this situation. Correlated with, and at the same time
demonstrative of, the generalized meaning of these temporal adverbs is the use
of the verb сбрить “to shave off” in the form of the
past perfective (primarily denoting a single accomplished action in the past)
as well as the absence of the explicit subject related to it: this absence can
be caused by the ellipsis of the noun denoting a specific person, and also it
can be considered a case of meaningful omission expressing the generalized zero
subject (the zero pronoun) requiring the predicate in the singular. Therefore
this can be regarded as a case of metonymy of the pars pro toto kind (with one action symbolically representing all
other similar actions) jointly expressed by the lexical and grammatical
deicticals. At the same time, it should not be overlooked that since this
transposition is based on the associative relationship of similarity, it
therefore must be considered metaphorical as well, or, using the recently
coined term, as a particular case of metaphtonymy, i.e. a combination of
metaphor and metonymy (semiotically, the motivational relationships of
similarity and contiguity, while differing from each other, are at the same
time essentially interrelated, any manifestation of similarity implying
contiguity and vice versa (Yermolenko “Epistemichna perspektyva
dyskursu” 50). The combination of the semantic features of
metaphor and metonymy as represented by grammatical and lexical temporal
deicticals has a different character in the following fragment from W. Shakespeare’s „Henty VIII”, in which the adverbs today i tomorrow convey the repeated character
of certain actions, so that the resulting description is a generalized one; yet
this generalization is temporally limited to a rather short period in the past
during which the meeting of two kings, Henry VIII of England and Francis 1 of France, took place: Each following day / Became the next day's master, till the last /
Made former wonders it. Today the
French, / All clinquant, all in gold, like heathen gods, / Shone down
the English; and tomorrow they / Made Britain India… Now this masque /
Was cried incomparable, and th'ensuing night / Made it a fool and beggar (W. Shakespeare). Thus in this fragment, a
generalizing metonymy is combined with a temporal transposition, or rather, the
former is realized within the latter. The use of adverbs for “today”,
“tomorrow”, “yesterday” to denote some state of affairs that is inherently
prone to changes typically finds place in paroemias, cf. Ukrainian Що маєш зробити завтра, зроби сьогодні, що маєш із’їсти сьогодні, із’їж завтра; не тепер,
так в четвер; сьогодні густо, завтра пусто; Latin hodie mihi, cras tibi; Italian. oggi fave, domani fame; Polish co mnie wczoraj, to tobie dziś; co dziś komu, to
jutro każdemu; Gernam heute mir, morgen dir; English here
today, gone tomorrow and the like. Comparing the generalizing and purely temporal
secondary meanings of deictial adverbs, it should be noted that they are
opposed not only in what regards their motivation and inner form, (mostly)
metonymical in the former and metaphorical in the latter. They also differ in
the field of their usage: the former commonly occur in everyday colloquial
speech, while their use to express past time reference is characteristic of
written discourse (fiction and documentary prose). Besides that, their another
difference concerns the extent of involvement of their primary meaning in the
generation of the secondary: in temporal transposition, it is only their
general temporal reference, equivalent to the tense meaning, that is changed,
but in the generalizing use of today,
tomorrow, yesterday and their correlatives in other languages, the semantic
change affects all of their primary meaning, so that the concepts of „today”,
„tomorrow” and „yesterday”, originally related to the sequence of daily periods
with respect to the speech moment („the day before the day when utterance takes
place; the day when utterance takes place; the day after the day when utterance
takes place”) become symbols of changeable situations and various
transformations, accomplishments and vagaries of human life. It will also be empasized that the metaphoric use
of temporal adverbs to denote past events seems not to co-occur with tense metaphor within the same proposition (The
following fragment from the commentary to J.Hoffmann’s documentary „Ukraine:
the making of a nation”, Polish Ale jeśli bunty hajdamaków i
koliszczyzna w granicacj dawnej Rzeczy Pospolitej leżały w interesach Rosji, to
teraz chłopskie rebelie w
granicach Imperium będą likwidowane w zarodku, seemingly illustrating the contrary, in fact
rather proves my point, since both the adverb teraz and the future tense of będą
likwidowane, besides referring to the past and events of the past, seen as
the future from some point in the past, also express the opposition between two
periods, the one synchronous with this time point, and the other preceding it.
This question, however, merits additional consideration.) Be it as it may, in generalizing metonymy, the same
semantic feature can have a multiple surface manifestation, as in the already
mentioned Russian Сегодня
есть, а завтра сбрил or Сегодня жив, а завтра жил, a Russian equivalent of Italian Oggi in
figura, domani in sepoltura (IRD 550), where it is
expressed both by the lexical items (сегодня, завтра, oggi, domani) and by the grammatical ones (the tense-aspectual forms сбрил,
жил), as well as by a zero pronoun. Proverbs and sayings about unstable
human condition, exemplifying such multiple manifestation, can also utilize the
opposition of the 1st and 2nd persons, as in Russian Сегодня
ты, а завтра я (an adage, widely known from Herman’s
aria in P. I. Chaykovskiy’s opera “Queen of spades”, libretto by M. I. Chaykovskiy), where this opposition
is reinterpreted essentially along the lines parallel to the generalizing
reinterpretation of the “today” vs. “tomorrow” opposition.
Summing up, the transferred use of
deictical lexical items must be recognized as such and accordingly taken into
account in describing the structure and operation of functional-semantic
fields, one of important and promising vistas of research in this field being
the study of correlation of general and language- as well as culture-specific
features and factors influencing the use of the said items in the secondary
meaning(s). Also, the present discussion gives another cause to reiterate the
necessity for stylistically stratified models of grammar descriptions and
studies on the borderline of functional grammar and functional stylistics. Last
not least, codified secondary semantic variants of temporal adverbs should be
consistently taken into consideration in lexicographic practice and registered
in dictionaries.
