Abstract

In this article S. Inyashkin analyzes the peculiarities of concept realization in science fiction texts written by the most significant American authors of the XX century - A. Asimov and R. Heinlein. The author gives five types of realization of science fiction concepts and points out the influence of occasionalisms, including idiomatic ones, on each of them. S. Inyashkin also says that there are other factors influencing the types of concept realization, including the author's style of writing, the specifications on a frame containing a concept and others.
