    - semantically there should be differentiated two main groups:
    - affective epithets
    - figurative epithets
    - transferred epithets;
    - structurally there should be differentiated: single epithets, pair epithets, chains or strings, two-step structures, inverted constructions, phrase-attributes
    - chains of epithets or strings of epithets
    - inverted epithets or reversed epithets

    ••
    a stylistic device based on the interplay of emotive and logical meaning in an attributive word, phrase or even sentence, used to characterise and object and pointing out to the reader, and frequently imposing on him, some of the properties or features of the object with the aim of giving an individual perception and evaluation of these features or properties

    1) экспрессивная оценочная характеристика какого-либо явления, лица или предмета, иногда, но необязательно, образная;
    2) лексико-синтаксический троп, отличается необязательно переносным характером выражающего его слова и обязательным наличием в нём эмотивных или экспрессивных или других коннотаций, благодаря которым выражается отношения автора к предмету

    c) описательные эпитеты: silk napkin, silver cups, long tables;
    - эпитеты частного характера выделяют в предметах и явлениях те качества, которые имею значение для данного мышления и не образуют постоянных пар
    А.Н.Веселовский семантически делит эпитеты на:
    a) тавтологические эпитеты - семантически согласованные эпитеты, подчёркивающие какое-нибудь основное свойство необходимое определяемого: fair sun, the sable night, wide sea, т.е. повторяющие в своём составе сему, обозначающую неотъемлемое свойство
    b) пояснительные эпитеты указывают на какую-нибудь важную черту определяемого, не обязательно присущую всему классу предметов, к которым он принадлежит, т.е. действительно характеризующую именного его: a grand Style, unvalued jewels, vast and trunkless legs of stone
    c) метафорические эпитеты - эпитет с обязательной двуплановостью, указанием сходства и несходства, семантическим рассогласованием, нарушением отмеченности:
    - анимистические, когда неодушевлённому предмету приписывается свойство живого существа: and angry sky, the howling storm;
