Poetic figurativeness as a foreign culture cognition instrument
... exploring the space of another culture. Based on classical (S. A. Askoldov, A. J. Greimas) and contemporary (V. V. Feschenko, M. Freeman) linguistic, philosophic, and semiotic approaches, the cognitive status of poetic imagery is substantiated. The definition of intercultural space is proposed as a conceptual domain and the object of artistic interpretation. The combination of the identification procedure of figurative word usage with the techniques of metaphorical modeling allowed for the identification ...
Spatial aspects of regional energy security: the case of the Kaliningrad region

Energy security issues encountered by Russian regions exhibit spatial variation depending on economic specialisation and geographical location. This article examines several definitions of energy security employed in Russian and international practice. The conceptual and terminological features of the category ‘energy security’ are explored, with an emphasis on Russian regions. A socio-geographical approach is adopted ...

I also focus on the utilisation of various algorithms for implementing diverse forms of creative activities,...

Semyon Frank and the German Neo-Kantianism: Aspects of Debate
... Frank’s fundamental disagreement with German Neo-Kantianism was expressed in his work The Object of Knowledge in which he criticised the Neo-Kantian concepts of number and time. Although Frank rightly points out the one-sidedness of the Neo-Kantian definition of number, most notably in the works of the Marburg philosopher Paul Natorp, on the whole his criticism of the Neo-Kantian concept of number and time as being different from his own is not entirely convincing. In my opinion, Frank’s attempt ...
Conceptual structure of the binary axiological opposition truth — lie

In English, the verbalised concept truth encodes information about both objective truth as well as its subjective perception and re-translation. A combination of methods — definitional, frame and conceptual analyses — makes it possible to investigate and model the structure of the frames TRUTH and LIE, identify their main slots and the type of conceptual information they encode. The results of the analyses suggest that ...
Gustav Shpet, Immanuel Kant and Terminist Logic
... discussion and notes that it was the framework in which the thirteenth-century tradition of “terminist” logic was formed. Shpet attributed the fruitfulness of this approach to his concept of the inner form of the word. Terminist logic is based on the definition and analysis of such terms as significatio, suppositio, expositio, exponibilia, and Shpet, in examining them, demonstrates the consonance of his concept with terminist logic. Proceeding from thirteenth-century logical studies, he proposes his ...

Semantic potential of the lexeme twilight in Russian poetry
... 'twilight' is employed in poetry in its direct-nominative dictionary sense, contributing to the creation of a lyrical chronotope and landscape sketches. In this context, the meaning actualized in the literary text may deviate from the dictionary lexical definition, such as in cases of personification and periphrastic renamings like 'twilight witch' or 'twilight monk.' 2) Figurative and symbolic meanings in poetry become notably prominent during the Silver Age. This period witnesses an enrichment ...
‘Mother’, ‘wife’ and ‘friend’: semantics and pragmatics of an address
This article explores the semantic and pragmatic features of the word 'mother' when used as a term of address. It examines secondary uses of the term in literary texts from the 1780s to the present, a sample of 4,272 tokens, alongside dictionary definitions. The study revealed that, in different communicative situations, the term 'mother' can convey a range of sometimes contradictory attributes such as 'patronage', 'superiority', 'dependency', 'strictness', 'kindness', 'overfamiliarity' and ...

The English word 'environment' was selected to describe the manifestations of frame structure at the linguistic level. The etymology and definitions of the lexical unit were analysed using English lexicographical sources and texts and contexts from the British National Corpus and the Corpus of Contemporary American English. Based on this foundation, the frame environment was constructed,...

It also offers a concise overview of scholarly and lexicographical interpretations of the term ‘mat’. The author proposes her own definition of profanity, distinguishing it from other forms of obscene language. Preliminary statistical insights are presented. For example, 26 % of the respondents report rarely or never using ‘mat’ (excluding quotations), with 23 respondents claiming ...

Although the paper does not provide definitive answers on how politeness strategies between humans and AI should function, it underscores sociolinguistic points that are likely to become increasingly pressing over time. Overall, the paper illustrates a significant shift in communication ...

“Rhetorical question” in linguistics and speech

On the one hand, the concept of a rhetorical question is given a clear definition, allowing the term to be introduced into the linguistic framework, and on the other hand, the actual usage of this expression in discourse is described. It is shown that the general principle of using the word ‘rhetorical’ in discourse ...

Given the polysemous nature of legality, the author critically evaluates the notion that legality can be viewed in its entirety as ...
A part outside the whole? (To Anton Zimmerling's article “Really: syntactics without semiotics?”)
Before delving into the connections between linguistics and semiotics, it is essential to establish a clear demarcation between these fields, which necessitates a precise definition of each subject. However, the approach taken by Anton Zimmerling in this regard is subject to debate. In the discussion of semiotics, the focus tends to lean towards interpretations that recognize the dual understanding of signs, while ...

On the functional definition of concepts and linguistic meanings: the embodied/grounded approach
The article suggests a way to overcome two well-known problems of embodied/grounded theory of cognition: the impossibility of strict differentiating modal and amodal symbols, and the difficulty in defining abstract concepts/simulators (abstract lexical meanings). The proposed functional approach is based on the dichotomy 'perceptual (external) vs. functional (internal)' that goes back to Ivan Sechenov. These cognitive units are shown to play fundamentally different roles. The function — the embodied...

The concept of literary communication is given a new definition; it refers to the interaction of the author as an artist and the reader (viewer, listener) through a message or an utterance as a work of art. A correlation is established between the structure of the literary sign and the structure of the ...

Experiences in translation: the text as a pattern, the pattern as a text
In this article, we discuss the methodological prospects of using the term ‘pattern’ in the analysis of a literary text. We identify the semantic and categorial field of the term, propose a definition of ‘pattern’ as projected on language material, and correlate the terms ‘pattern’, ‘repetition’, ‘recurrence’, and others. The linguistic ontology of the pattern as a text-generating mechanism is determined by the fact that ...

The article proposes a definition of hybridization and hybrid texts while distinguishing between the linguistic, genre, multimodal, and multimedia types of hybridization. Special cases of language hybrids are onomatopoeic hybrids, which are based on the sounds of hostilities; ...

Meaning production is understood as a result of the conjunction of linguistic and extralinguistic ...
