The scope of the research lies within the framework of idiostyle of authorial peritexts, the title being one of them. The target of the inquiry was to identify the typical syntactic formulas and lexical contents of the titles to pieces of fiction within the H. Poirot\u2019s cycle by A. Christie, to detect their typical semantic and communicative patterns and informative potential. The paper may be methodologically interesting to a reader abroad as it is grounded on the Russian scholarly canonical tradition of title poetics and title-typologies elaborated by I.V. Arnold and A.V. Lamzina and I.V. Iskhakova\u2019s follow-up, \u00abdaring to measure titles\u00bb pre-reading informative overtness. To parse the lexical and syntactic parameters, elements of TROPES V8.4 were used. The obtained results of the linguistic and literary analysis brought out the typical syntactic and semantic configurations like in Dead Man\u2019s Folly, The ABC Murders, Evil under the Sun, The Capture of Cerebus. The methodology and results may be applied for further case studies of other authors and other authorial peritexts as aspects of individual style. The implementation of the whole approach might also be of interest to continuation novel writers and for author\u2019s attribution studies. We conclude that titles can be considered as peritext elements reflecting the author&#8217;s idiostyle, since one can statistically state the structural, lexical, semantic and communicative preferences in types of titles and relationships between them.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Keywords:<\/strong> title; idiostyle; literary text; peritext; structural, semantic and communicative title patterns; direct semantics; complicated semantics; degree of informativeness<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vostrikova Olga Vladimirovna Pushkin State Russian Language Institute, Moscow, Russia E-mail: o.w.wolke@list.ru ORCID: https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8542-8975 RSCI: https:\/\/elibrary.ru\/author_profile.asp?id=291762 Zyukova Julia Andreevna Pushkin State Russian Language Institute, Moscow, Russia E-mail: olesyagrm@gmail.com ORCID: https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2832-8863 Abstract.
