Expressing the meaning of condition in argumentative fiction texts
The article describes the ways of expressing the meaning of condition (as a part of the conditionality paradigm) in argumentative texts of Russian and English-language fiction. It is shown that the meaning of condition, characterised by its hypothetical nature, can be expressed by explicit and implicit means with the obligatory manifestation of its essential feature. Moreover, the meaning of condition is often difficult to distinguish from other meanings (cause, in particular) in cases of its implicit expressing.
