(Summary)
The article examines the semantic-syntactic roles of the specific
colloquial subordinating conjunctions that Dimităr Talev (1898 –
1965) uses in his tetralogy (“The Iron Lantern” (1952), “The Bells of
Prespa” (1954), “Saint Elias’ Day” (1953) and “I Hear Your Voices”
(1966). With the help of the descriptive method, the functions of the
studied connectives are presented synchronously in the above
mentioned literary works. When clarifying the origin of the
conjunctions, the diachronic approach is partially applied. The
assumption is confirmed that Talev often uses a language close to
colloquial (and even dialectal) speech in order to highlight the
vernacular nature of his characters’ speeches, as well as a speech
feature of the region where one of the most beloved Bulgarians writers
comes from.
Keywords: Dimităr Talev, tetralogy, colloquial subordinating
