Афоризмы. Грегерии. Мотто: внутрижанровый анализ [Articol]

Abstract

This article presents the results of collective activities in the field of aphoristics over the past 25 years, namely: clarification of the belonging of a gregeria to one or another author due to frequent discrepancies (see Index of initials and abbreviations), classification of the main types of gregeria based on their divergence, definition of each type (genre) and intra-genre analysis, a brief description of each specific type/genre with reinforcement by textual and illustrative examples. When establishing genre boundaries, the most painful was the established attitude to aphorisms as something frozen, condo, not tolerating objections. The appearance and wide distribution of fresh, sometimes frivolous works, whose name is gregeria and motto, helped to overcome this mossy barrier. The conclusions provide preliminary statistics, convexly demonstrating the most frequent, popular topics, problems, ideas and objects, testifying to the urgent interests and preferences of society for vital processes.
