Abstract

The article examines the emotion "anger" and its representation in a literary text. The authors use J. K. Rowling's novel "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" as research material, in which representations of the emotion "anger" are widely presented. The main purpose of the study is to determine the functional significance of the context for expanding the understanding of the emotion "anger". Explanatory dictionaries of the English language provide exhaustive definitions of lexemes describing an state of anger; however, the context provides a more detailed idea of the expression and manifestation of the emotion "anger". The study finds that the literary text expands the understanding of the emotion "anger" and increases the list of lexemes representing this emotion.

Keywords:

emotion "anger", linguistic representation, artistic text.
