The aim of the research is to propose a method of discourse profiling serving the purpose, and to further test the method in the contrastive study of linguistic creativity in different types of English language children’s novels. The category of linguistic creativity being the leading form of language poesis receives parametric description on all language representation levels (in written form) and provides the discourse values for contrastive analysis. These values are explored in the fragments of non-autobiographic and autobiographic adventure novel sub-discourse types authored by J.C. George, F. Gibson, J.D. Ullman, and G. Durrell (a total amount of 120.000 signs) annotated manually for 52 linguistic creativity parameters on phonological, morphological, word-formation, lexical, syntactic, and graphic levels. The working hypothesis is that the linguistic creativity parametric activity distributions represent the sub-discourse profiles and may serve to contrast sub-discourse types by means of their vectors’ contingency values. The analysis in individual parameter activity and in parameter groups activity demonstrated significant variance in sub-discourse construal, with autobiographic sub-discourse of G. Durrell manifesting several higher activity values in word-formation (occasional compounding), lexical use (the use of professional language, lexical tropes, allusive names, higher register style) and syntactic use (the use of parallel structures and syntactic intensifiers). In terms of morphological activity, the parameter values tend to be lower (morphological category shifts), the same stands true of some syntactic (the use of elliptical structures) and lexical parameters (the use of lower register types and proper names). The sub-discourse profiles demonstrate several common features, evidently typical of the discourse type itself, and the features differentiating non-autobiographic and autobiographic discourse subtypes. Vector correlation analysis revealed lower correlation values for autobiographic sub-discourse, which proves its specificity and testifies to the discourse profiling method applicability.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p style="text-align: justify;">Для современной лингвистики дискурса актуальной является проблема отсутствия методов контрастивного анализа субдискурсов, применение которых позволило бы оперировать числовыми и сопоставимыми данными при их разграничении и описании. Цель исследования состоит в разработке метода дискурсивного профилирования, который тестируется при проведении контрастивного анализа лингвистической креативности в разных типах дискурса детской англоязычной повести; при этом лингвистическая креативность как ведущая форма языкового поэзиса изучается через параметрический анализ ее языковых маркеров на всех уровнях языковой репрезентации письменной формы дискурса. Материалом исследования выступают образцы неавтобиографического и автобиографического субдискурсов детской англоязычной приключенческой повести Дж. Джорджа, Ф. Гибсона, Дж. Улльмана и Дж. Даррелла общим объемом 120 тыс. знаков, которые подверглись аннотированию по 52 параметрам лингвистической креативности (с использованием процедуры ручного аннотирования) на фонологическом, морфологическом, словообразовательном, лексическом, синтаксическом и графическом уровнях. Гипотеза исследования заключается в том, что распределение частоты, или активности параметров дискурс-структурирующей категории лингвокреативности может быть использовано для проведения контрастивного анализа субдискурсов при установлении степени сопряженности их многомерных векторов лингвокреативности. Результаты анализа активности индивидуальных параметров и их групп позволили определить ряд значимых отличий в субдискурсах: автобиографический дискурс Д. Даррелла демонстрирует повышенную активность параметров на словообразовательном уровне (использование словосложений), лексическом уровне (использование терминологии, стилистических тропов, аллюзивных имен, переключений регистров), синтаксическом уровне (использование параллельных структур и интенсификаторов). Сниженная активность обнаружена у некоторых морфологических параметров (категориальные трансформации), синтаксических параметров (использование эллиптических конструкций) и лексических параметров (переключение на разговорный регистр, использование имен собственных). Наглядно представленные профили субдискурсов демонстрируют как отличительные, так и схожие проявления лингвокреативности в рассматриваемых дискурсах. Проведенный анализ корреляций векторов лингвокреативности субдискурсов показал сниженный коэффициент сопряженности в отношении автобиографического фрагмента, что свидетельствует в пользу результативности метода дискурсивного профилирования как способного разграничивать субдискурсы.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>linguistic creativity</kwd><kwd>discourse profiles</kwd><kwd>children’s novels</kwd><kwd>Gerald Durrell</kwd><kwd>vector analysis</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>лингвистическая креативность</kwd><kwd>дискурсивные профили</kwd><kwd>детская повесть</kwd><kwd>Джеральд Даррелл</kwd><kwd>векторный анализ</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><funding-statement xml:lang="en">The research is sponsored by the Russian Science Foundation, grant № 19-18-00040 and is carried out in the Institute of Linguistics of the Russian Academy of Sciences.</funding-statement></funding-group></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Agres, Kathleen, Stephen McGregor, Matthew Purver &amp; Geraint Wiggins. 2015.
