Abstract:
The article is dedicated to precise analysis of distinguishing quantitative parameters of author’s language and style. Such an analysis is made for Ivan Franko long prose fiction for the first time. The frequency dictionary of all nine Ukrainian novels by Ivan Franko was compiled on the material of an electronic text corpus with an external and internal markup. It can be considered as a statistical combinatory model of Franko’s style as well as a lingual statistical portrait of his long prose fiction. The following parameters were obtained: vocabulary sizes, variety, exclusiveness, concentration indexes, the amount of hapax legomena, their occupation of text and vocabulary, amount of words in text with frequency 10 and higher, their occupation of text and vocabulary. They were compared with those of text corpus of Ukrainian general long prose fiction.
