THE IMAGE OF THE FIRST HOMELAND-SCOTLAND: TEMPORAL ASPECT

Abstract

This article analyzes “the Scotch time” on the basis of two types of temporal organization of poetic texts of the Scottish poets-emigrants: ring and purposeful. It is stated that the ring temporal organization is represented by the image of the homeland as “Eternal Scotland”, a purposeful temporal organization is realized in the historical time (in diachrony: Scotland since the days of Robert the Bruce to Scotland contemporary to authors).
