Abstract. The article is devoted to the speech genre "recollection" that is described as a constituent of the hypergenre "talk"; the last is viewed by the author as a complex genre unity associated with natural communication. It is a tradition in linguistics while describing the recollection to point to its typological features – narrative character, which presupposes long retention of initiative by one speaker and, consequently, the great extension of replicas. The author singles out the "compressed recollection" and defines it as a short ascertaining message about some fact of the past, which might be deployed into a complete narrative. The transcribed records of Primorsky Region inhabitants' live speech in situations of family and companion communication made the material for this research; in particular, talks of 20 informants aged from 11 to 85 were recorded in 2013-2015. The compressed recollection is characterized in three aspects. A semantic aspect indicates to its main proposition types: proposition of event, proposition of object, ascertaining proposition. A communicative-pragmatic aspect uncovers its main functions: illustration of the author's words, appeal to the collocutor's memory, introduction of a new thematic fragment, introduction of a new sub-theme including. A structuralillocutionary aspect focuses on the compressed recollection as initial and reaction replicas in the dialogue. The set of diverse features verifies the notion of compressed recollection as a constituent of the hypergenre "talk".
Key words: hypergenre, speech genre, talk, compressed recollection, narrative.
