.3 Research traditions
Despite the fact that the study of metonymy goes back to Aristotle, in the last twenty years, there is a rise of interest in metonymy - a concept has existed for over two thousand years.R. Jakobson pulled metaphor and metonymy to the center of the stage in linguistics and poetics, structuralists were trying to account for meaning by means of a componential model of clearly defined semantic elements (Jakobson, «Closing Statement»). Inspired by the success of V. Propp's structuralist narratology, which attempted to account for story structure by means of a limited set of plot ingredients, and by structuralist phonology, which was able to characterize the various phonemes of language by means of a limited set of sound primitives and their combinations, structuralist semanticists set out to develop a similar approach for word meaning.phenomenon is treated rather briefly in Lakoff and Johnson (1980), Lakoff and Turner (1989), Lakoff (1987), and Taylor (1995 Goossens ( 1990), Croft (1993), and Dirven (1993), and the collections of articles in Panther and Radden (1999), and in Barcelona (2000 and Niemeier, 2000). This is in agreement with the claims of some scholars who argue that metonymy occupies a more central role in our conceptual apparatus than granted so far [27].
1.4 The relationship of metonymy and phraseology
. Kunin rethinking the type of the expression considered metonymy as a kind of phraseologism.type reconsideration is metonymy. It also serves to create imagery. Considering the idiom, we can not leave aside their main features - imagery and expressiveness, because in most cases these characteristics and distinguish PU from words.modern English idioms, some of the groups formed on the basis of unrealistic situations and, therefore, does not have the equivalent of variable combinations of words, which increases their expressiveness: turn a blind eye to smth - blind to smth., turn a deaf ear to smth, seal one's ears - a deaf ear.group of metonymical phraseology in the study of phraseological subsystem are PU, prototypes of which are combinations of variables words for facial expressions and gestures.type of metonymic transfer is the transfer of functional items, which is the name of the function that is replaced by a combination of the words that describe the presence of a body, for which this feature is characteristic, that is, < i align="justify"> have eyes in place to see, have ears instead to hear, have a nose instead to smell , semantic separation of these units indicates that they are phraseological.

2.1 Stylistic features of metonymy in the women s novels
The basic idea behind the usage of metonymy is that people create associations between a particular object and a related object. In the phrase «the pen is mightier than the sword,» for example, there are two instances of metonymy at work. «The pen» does not literally refer to a writing instrument, but instead refers to the process of writing and the expression of ideas, while «the sword» again does not mean a literal weapon, but instead refers to a military group or armed action. Someone who hears this type of phrase is typically able to understand what is meant, since these associations are quite common within a particular culture or society, particularly, within a genre.
