Abstract. The study aims to make an associative profile of the colour lexeme "white" in a literary text in Russian and English. The article considers the colour term "white" in attributive word combinations according to associative paradigms to identify contextual meaning of the colour lexeme. The work is novel in that it is the first to study transformation of psychosemantics of the colour term "white" owing to contextual semantic increments of this colour term, basing on the Russian and English novels of demonic nature and at the intersection of the history of colour and linguistics. As a result of redistribution of symbolic meanings of white, the colour term "white" metaphorically transformed symbolism of white (light, good) into symbolism of black (darkness, evil).
Key words and phrases: цветоимя, цветолексема, атрибутивное словосочетание, символика цвета, ассоциативная парадигма, colour term, colour lexeme, attributive word combination, colour symbolism, associative paradigm
