COGNITIVE-DISCURSIVE APPROACH TO THE STUDY OF FICTION TEXT

Аннотация

Scholars in the field of cognitive linguistics argue that its fundamental principle is the relationship between language and cognition. Currently, cognitive linguistics investigates the relationship between language and consciousness, the role of speech and thinking activity in conceptualising and cognising the world, and the relationship between human cognitive abilities and language. The notions of “concept” and “discourse” significantly shape the character of modern linguistics, including cognitive linguistics. The study of discourse as an abstract model of language activity becomes a fruitful method for revealing high-level concepts reflecting knowledge about the world and language in consciousness.
