Linguistic Culturology
What is Linguistic Culturology? Following the recent ongoing intensive research into many of the fundamental aspects of the complex relationship between language and culture, especially in Russia, the main object of study of linguistic culturology as a discipline in its own right has already come to be defined with sufficient clarity, particularly with regard to explicating culture in phrases, proverbs and other linguistic units. However, there is still a lot more to explore, both in terms of applying the already existing approaches to structural levels of language other than that of the word, phrase and proverb (paremia) as well as of suggesting and developing other original approaches for studying the cultural meanings of more extensive corpora of linguistic units and larger texts. What is the aim of this website?
