The semantic and plot-generating functions
of the onomastic paradigm in the works
of Dina Rubina “Napoleon wagon train” and
“The White Dove of Cordoba” is examined in
the article. The relevance of the study is due
to the fact that the trilogy “Napoleon’s Wagon
Train” has not previously been subjected
to scientific analysis, nor has the artistic
techniques of this trilogy been compared
with those of other works by Dina Rubina.
The novelty of the research is seen in the fact
that, based on the material of the latest novels
by Rubina, repeated motives of the reification
and humanization of a name, giving it
the status of an independent being, a character
equal to the bearers of this name, are revealed.
Attention is paid to the tendencies in the use
of the onomastic code and its gravitation
towards a certain type of characters, the life
story of which is considered by the author
in comparison with the characters who lose,
hide and deliberately deform their names in
an extensive chronotope, covering the period
from the era of antiquity, the Renaissance and
the Napoleonic wars to the present day. It is
proved that the onomastic code, manifested
in novels included in different trilogies,
appears as a structural component cementing
all the later novelistic works of Dina Rubina
as the author’s supertext, arranged according
to uniform semantic laws. The proper name
in Rubina’s works is a meta-symbol, a sign
of personality identification in its uniqueness
and in the history of the clan and family.
