Abstract
The paper is devoted to the scientific heritage of Leonard Yuryevich Maksimov, Doctor of Philology, professor, who for many years headed the Russian language department of the Moscow State Pedagogical Institute (MPSU). The paper analyzes the syntactic theory of L. Yu. Maksimov and the historical context of its formation: scientific ideas about the complex sentence of the 60–70s. XX century, views of predecessors and contemporaries (A. A. Shakhmatov, N. S. Pospelov, V. A. Beloshapkova, etc.). The ideas of L. Yu. Maksimov in key areas of the theory of complex sentences are considered: types of wh-clause (rus. substantive-attributive clause) and complement clause, types of pronominal clauses, structural types of correlates. Sentences such as There was such a snowstorm that he couldn’t see anything qualified as attributive in the 1950s; L. Yu. Maksimov showed that they should be classified as pronominal-conjunctive. L. Yu. Maksimov studied hybrid constructions that are transitional from attributive clauses with relative pronouns where and when to subordinate clauses of place and time. L. Yu. Maksimov distinguished between pronominal-correlative and pronominal-conjunctive clauses. The scientific achievements of L. Yu. Maksimov are relevant for modern syntactic theory.
