| dc.description.abstract | The subject of this paper is searching for cognitive means of describing argumentative parametricity in pupils’
textual discourse. Conceptualizations of a magic tree in compositions written by children at the younger school age
(the third form) contain first of all fantastic elements. In the analyzed linguistic material the following
parameters were distinguished: the subject and characters of a text, key-words, tropicalization of the topic,
compositionality of composed meanings, competition of domains, themes in a language and in a text, and also
axiological, cultural, bodycentric, and linguodidactic parameters that became arguments. Next, the distinguished
parameters and arguments allowed to describe different kinds of argumentative-parametrical schemes that depend on
creating a current discursive sphere by respondents. The tool used here to produce premises was the tropos of a
tree and the tropos arranging the written discourse became the theme of Arcadia. The strongest parametrical
arguments in pupils’ compositions were the cultural, axiological, and anthropocentric ones. | en |
