Языкотворчество Ф. Скорины и жанрово-стилистическое расслоение старобелорусского литературного языка

Abstract

It is stressed In the paper that the Old Byelorussian language represents a cotnplex genre-stylistic system, varieties of which noticeably differ one from another by their structural features because of the possibilities to use widely both the people's spoken language and the traditional book means which leads to wasting away the boundaries between the Old Byelorussian literary language and the shurch Slavonic language. Skorina's Bible is a striking example of this phenomenon. None the less the general trend of the F. Skorlna's linguistic creativity gives ground to include his aditions directly into the context of the liistory of ttie Byelorussian literary language of the old times
