Семантическая структура концепта «блаженный» в очерке И. А. Гончарова «Пепиньерка»

Author(s): Gulzada G. Bagautdinova / Language(s): Russian Issue: 2/2021

The article attempts to analyze the semantic structure of the “God’s fool” concept in the essay Pepiniere by I. A. Goncharov. As a term, this concept is interpreted from the point of view of culturology. The essay reveals the basic structural components of the “God’s fool” concept, as well as its core and additional semantic features. The author of the article believes that the religious component is embodied in the structure of the concept one way or another, but is not reflected directly in the word usage. The “God’s fool” lexeme mainly comprises various secular meanings that are expressed via metaphors, repetitions and comparisons. The specific nature of the “God’s fool” concept in I.A. Goncharov’s Pepiniere is revealed in its periphery, which is formed by certain artistic techniques and categories (intertextual exchanges, comic elements). For instance, the function of the quote of Friday’s nomination from Daniel Defoe’s The Life and Strange Surprising Adventures of Robinson Crusoe; Written by Himself, as well as the comparative quote from Boris Godunov by A. S. Pushkin are considered in this article. Furthermore, quoting is an artistic technique that creates the game motive, to which I. A. Goncharov resorts indirectly. The gaming component not only creates and emphasizes the comical element, but also serves as one of the writer’s artistic principles that contributes to the creation of the harmonious, negentropic worldview. The study of I. A. Goncharov’s sphere of concepts allows to identify not so much the variability of the writer’s worldview as its invariability.

Концепт «литература» в переписке И. С. Тургенева и Ф. М. Достоевского

Author(s): Olga M. Barinova / Language(s): Russian Issue: 4/2020

The article examines the concept of literature as a unit of the linguistic image of the world of two great writers, which is associated with each of the authors’ comprehension and figurative interpretation of the literary process and journalistic activity in the 19th century. Using the letters of Turgenev and Dostoevsky during their conspicuous interaction (1860–1867) the author researches the linguistic methods of concept representation, its semantic volume, identifies a set of semantic features, explores the use of various evaluative vocabulary as a means of explication of this concept, establishes stimulus words in the correspondence. Turgenev perceives the sphere of literature as something true, superior and even miraculous, Dostoevsky proposes both a positive and a negative assessment of the events occurring in the literary process. The analysis of the two writers’ correspondence made it possible to disclose the attitude of correspondents to various literary spheres, to reveal the specific features of the concept of literature in the conceptual sphere of Turgenev and Dostoevsky. Accordingly, it was determined that the language units of the concept of literature as perceived by the Russian intelligentsia contain emotive components, and that the epistolary texts contain elements of intimization and frequent use of authors’ specific language techniques, comparisons and metaphorical images. The notions of literature and the literary process are conceptualized in writers’ letters as an animate acting force, an environment that is capable of action. The figurative language means used by writers in the correspondence endow the concepts with a specific image and sensual meaning. The concept of literature reveals the features of their work, the literary process and journalistic activities, which were an essential part of themselves and their lives for both Turgenev and Dostoevsky.

Lingvistička arabistika u radovima Mesuda Hafizovića

Author(s): Mehmed Kico / Language(s): Bosnian Issue: 22/2018

This article is thematically related to the recently published work by the same author (“Arabic Philology in the works of Mesud Hafizović”, Zbornik radova Fakulteta islamskih nauka, no. 21, Sarajevo, 2017.) which offers an analysis of the thematically closely linked articles by Mesud Hafizović, published in six issues of the Zbornik. In contrast to those articles, which are firmly linked by the cognate character of their titles and content, Hafizović’s articles analysed in this review are mutually related only through a wider scope as covered by the term Arabic linguistics. These articles overcome the breadth of geographical and ethnic differences of places and communities which pertain to the themes addressed and the large number of publications in which they were published. Given that Mesud Hafizović has analysed remarkably variant issues, the term Arabic studies in the title of this work is used to cover all of its disparate meanings, while the accompanying attribute linguistic serves the purpose of reducing the contents of his work to what pertains to Arabic language and literature in Arabic studies. At the same time the term excludes numerous areas of study linked to Islamic civilization which are identifiable as the subject of the majority of the remaining works, which Hafizović published in many publications that have been issued by educational institutions of the Islamic Community in Bosnia-Herzegovina.

The Challenges of Translating The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn into Romanian

Author(s): Alexandra Mitrea / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2020

A classic of American literature, Mark Twain’s The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn has had a huge impact not only on American literature but also on world literature. Its bold and freshly creative style, its humor and the author’s endless verve and vitality, the multifaceted and novel approach to life have all contributed to its success and popularity. However, Twain’s greatest merit probably lies in the way in which he used language, crafting art out of the speech of ordinary people. His experiments with language, the vernacular in particular, have meant a huge step forward in American literature and have been a source of inspiration for many writers. However, the translation of the novel has generated huge challenges related to the linguistic register appropriate for the translation of the novel and the strategies for rendering dialect, the African-American one in particular. It has also divided Romanian translators with regard to the target readership the original novel addressed: children, adults or both.

Egzempli u Senjskom korizmenjaku iz 1508.

Author(s): Antonija Zaradija Kiš / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 1/2008

The preserved exempla in glagolitic literature represent an exceptional and little known fragment of the whole, very rich medieval European exempla literary tradition (J. Th. WELTER, 1927). The exempla in the Senjski korizmenjak (Lent Book) belong to the translation of Quaresimale in volgare, of the Franciscan brother Roberto Caraccioli (1425-1495) from Lecce. The Senj exempla reflect Caraccili’s directions of unifying of oral and written literal expression with the Croatian language and glagolitic alphabet dedicated to laics and priests in a popular, interesting and memorable way which supported popular sanctity as well as everyday ethic and communicative relationship between preacher and believers. Of 19 exempla in the Korizmenjak which we transliterated according to systemised norms and we especially concentrated on the 13th which is known in every western European collection of exempla under the title of Ungrateful Son. Our thoughts we concentrated on appearance of the frog and its role and symbolism which it brings to this story.

A estatística textual computadorizada e a literatura brasileira: uma análise do romance Miragem, de Coelho Neto

Author(s): Emanoel Cesar Pires de Assis,Daniel Lopes / Language(s): Portuguese Issue: 18/2019

In this article, we reveal, through a stylometric reading, characteristics of Coelho Neto’s style in Miragem (1895). In addition, we compare the style of the writer with the style of three contemporary writers: Aluísio Azevedo, O Cortiço (1890); Adolfo Caminha, Bom-Crioulo (1895); and Machado de Assis, Dom Casmurro (1900). The research methodology adopted in this study is supported by stylometry (Brandão, 2006, Cúrcio, 2006, 2007, 2013, Freitas, 2007, Paiva, 2013, Assis, 2013 and Silva, 2014) and dialogues, whenever possible, with the literary criticism directed to Coelho Neto and his work, mainly in relation to his style. Among our findings, we have found that the uses of adjectives, verbs, and adverbs in Coelho Neto’s criticism of the composition of his style are apparently normal when compared to the style of other writers.

УЛОГА МЕТАФОРА У ТЕКСТОВИМА ПУБЛИЦИСТИЧКОГ СТИЛА – ДИСКУРС О НАТО БОМБАРДОВАЊУ СРЈ 1999. ГОДИНЕ

Author(s): Anđela T. Vujošević / Language(s): Serbian Issue: 73/2020

In der Arbeit werden Metaphern und ihre Bedeutung in journalistischen Texten in der serbischen Presse analysiert. Das Korpus besteht aus Online-Artikeln in der Tageszeitung POLITIKA, die sich mit den NATO-Bombenangriffen auf die Bundesrepublik Jugoslawien im Jahr 1999 beschäftigen. Ausgehend von der Theorie der konzeptuellen Metapher von G. Lakoff und М. Johnson bezieht sich die Arbeit auf neuere theoretische Modelle für Metaphern und ihre Rolle in politischen Diskursen und versucht zu zeigen, dass Metaphern kein stilistisches Mittel in einem literarischen Text sind, sondern die wichtigsten verbalen Mittel darstellen, mit denen abstrakte Konzepte wie Ideologien, soziale Prozesse, Emotionen oder kognitive Konzepte erklärt und angenähert werden können. Zusätzlich zu dieser grundleg- enden Rolle sind Metaphern zur Entwicklung einer persuasiven und manipulativen Funktion in Massenmediendiskursen geeignet. Deshalb spielen sie in politischen Diskursen eine Schlüsselrolle, denn die gesamte politische und soziale Welt basiert auf vom Menschen geschaffenen Konzepten in abstrakten Bereichen, für die es in Wirklichkeit in der Regel keine konkreten Konzepte gibt. Das Verständnis dieser abstrakten Konzepte findet also in den Bereichen der Metaphern statt.

ФУНКЦИОНИРОВАНИЕ ЦЕЛЕВОГО СОЮЗА ДАБЫ В ПУБЛИЦИСТИКЕ XX–XXI ВЕКОВ: ИСТОРИЧЕСКИЙ И КОММУНИКАТИВНЫЙ АСПЕКТЫ

Author(s): Natalia Pavlovna Galkina / Language(s): Russian Issue: 5/2021

The study of outdated vocabulary and the appropriateness of its use is of interest from the point of view of the development and preservation of the language richness and variability, especially amid current standardization, simplification and unification of languages in general and the Russian language in particular. The article presents analysis of the use of a low-frequency conjunction of purpose дабы in publicist texts from the point of view of the meanings it can bring. In linguistic literature, it is labeled as outdated, bookish, and stylistically colored. The author assumes that the choice of atypical linguistic means should be considered an indicator of the language flexibility and its adjustment to the most accurate expression of meaning in a given communicative situation. The author uses specific examples to show that the use of this conjunction in publicist texts is stylistically relevant, since it can serve not only as a means of archaization for adding some historical color, but also as a tool for giving the text a touch of solemnity and sublimity, as well as for implicit expression of the author’s irony, sarcasm or evaluation. In particular cases, the purpose component introduced by the conjunction дабы may function independently, separately from the main sentence/clause, indicating a call or motivation rather than a goal. Thus, the use of atypical means of communication correlates with such main functions of the journalistic style as providing information, evaluation, incentive, and influence.

Езиковата мода в онлайн медиите: наблюдения върху някои комуникативни практики

Author(s): Iva Ivanova / Language(s): Bulgarian Issue: 10/2021

The article analyzes the concept of language fashion as a linguocultural, sociolinguistic and linguistic phenomenon that influences the style of modern media and in particular online media. It is pointed out how some specifics of online media such as the possibility for regular updating of information, hypertextuality, multimedia presentation of information and active participation of users in creating the information flow reflect on the emergence and imposition of fashionable language patterns. Language fashion is seen as a means of manipulating information in the online environment. The summary is made that despite some specifics in the creation and assimilation of fashionable language patterns (rapid assimilation of language models; unsustainability of some language innovations; entry of language patterns from social networks; search for a balance between expression and standard), online media follow common to most media language models.

СЕМАНТИКА ПРИВІТАННЯ ТА ЇЇ СИНТАКСИЧНА РЕАЛІЗАЦІЯ

Author(s): Oksana Melnychuk / Language(s): Ukrainian Issue: 1/2021

The purpose of the article is to study and systematize formal -grammatical features of etiquette greetings and to implement their syntactic typology. The relevance of the work is determined by the importance of the subject of study and lack of clear etiquette greetings’ syntactic typology in modern Ukrainian linguistics. The scientific novelty of the study is the improvement of syntactic structural schemes typology of etiquette greetings. Research methods: the historical, logical, structural, cognitive, scientific methods were used in the work. Conclusions. The implemented syntactic typology of etiquette greetings confirms the diversity of their structure. The most productive forms of their implementation are nominative one-member sentences and verbal (one-member as well as two-member) ones. According to the semantics and communicative purpose, we can identify two types of nominal greetings structures: nominative narrative (declarative) sentences) and nominative imperative-optative ones. Nominative imperative – optative greetings are full of emotional content. Nominative and imperative – optative meanings are combined in their semantics e.g. “Myr domu Vashomy!” (Peace to your house!), “Khl’ib ta sil’!” (Bread and salt!). In the fixed one-member verbal sentences the main member is performed by a certain conjugation e.g. “Vinshuiu!” (Congratulations!)", “Biu cholom” (I bow to you), “Bozhe pomozhy” (God, help (us)). Fixed two-member etiquette greetings have different stylistic tinge of “politeness”, so they are not used in all the language genres. They are mainly used in informal and belletristic language styles.

Author(s): Ruslan Vakariuk / Language(s): Ukrainian Issue: 1/2021

The article deals with verbalizers of the phrasal concept REPENTANCE in the system of Christian moral values of the English language culture. In the proposed study, cognitive-matrix analysis was implemented as the main research methodology, the principles of which were developed by Yu. M. Boldyrev. It is based on the concept of matrix (nets) domains, in which the matrix can be illustrated graphically as a grid. It is understood as a simple set of conceptual areas, and the conceptual sphere or domain - as a context for updating the meaning of the word. The domains‟ matrix is identified in intelligence as a value system of Christianity verbalized through the system of biblical phraseology of American and British English. Scientific novelty. The exploration specifies the terminological scope of the term “biblical phraseology / biblical expression”; the essence of the method of cognitive-matrix analysis is shown, too. Conclusions. The analysis is underpinned by phraseographic sources and the conceptual component of the concept REPENTANCE has been characterized. This analysis has revealed the place of this linguistic essential quality in the structure of the integrative concept (matrix) of CHRISTIAN MORAL VALUES and the correlation of the concept of REPENTANCE with the domain of repentance is determined. The selected biblical expressions, verbalizers of this concept, are defined and characterized.

Stylistyka listów Bolesława Prusa do żony

Author(s): Magdalena Czachorowska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 20/2021

The linguistic shape of the letters depends on the role that the writer plays when writing them to his wife. When he writes from distant Germany, Switzerland, and France, he is a traveler who wants to bring his beloved closer to his views and impressions, hoping to visit wonderful, unknown places together. When he rests in Nałęczów, he verifies or supplements known facts, events, landscapes, talks about new acquaintances, describes the lazily passing days recording even the smallest details. The letters written from the room next door are a language joke, an exercise for a hand hitting the keys of a typewriter. The epistolographic works described above are the best illustration of Stefania Skwarczyńska’s claim that the letter “is a phenomenon in its genesis most strongly associated not only with the person of the author, but also with the person of the addressee who, through his silent participation, grows to the dignity of a co-author”.

Artistic Conceptualization of Native Land in William Wordsworth’s Poetry

Author(s): Nataliia Romanyshyn / Language(s): English Issue: 12/2021

The paper focuses on revealing linguistic and cognitive mechanisms that underlie the formation and functioning of verbal images of native land in William Wordsworth’s poetic system. The artistic concept of Motherland is subjected to linguistic-poetic interpretation. The national specificity of Wordsworth’s poetics reveals itself in the dominance of ethnographic details and naturalness of description, foregrounding the idea of inseparability of individual personal fate and the processes of ethnic environment transformation. Everyday themes and dramatic effect of personal and intimate events in the life of a poetic persona are ascribed symbolic senses and reflect the universal and national destiny of England at the turn of the century.

Динамика концептуализации лексемы реклама в русской языковой медиакартине мира (на материале газетных текстов 2011– 2021 гг.)

Author(s): Lydia Alekseevna Isaeva,Elizaveta Nikolaevna Ostapenko / Language(s): Russian Issue: 4-5/2021

This article discusses the conceptualization dynamics of the lexeme reklama (‘advertising’), which has only recently adjusted its scope as a concept and become an integral part of modern society, actualizing and developing its meaning through publicistic texts. To fulfil this aim, the following tasks were solved based on the analysis of the Russian newspaper texts of 2011–2021: the concept of dynamics was defined; stable conceptualizations of the lexeme reklama formed by 2010 were determined; the newspaper texts of 2011–2021 with the lexeme reklama were analyzed; changes in the scope of the concept of advertising, which is denoted by the lexeme under study, were specified. Contextual and statistical analysis of the material obtained during the continuous sampling was performed. The results of the chronological study supported a conclusion that the newspaper texts of 2011–2021 are dominated by either neutral or positive attitude to the concept of advertising. This trend confirms the dynamic development of the lexeme reklama in Russian mass media and reflects the change in the attitude of native speakers to the concept of advertising. The practical significance of the work is associated with the possibility of using its results in the training courses on media texts, philological analysis, and marketing.
