PRINCIPLES OF A SYSTEMATIC APPROACH IN CONCEPTUAL LANGUAGE RESEARCH: RELEVANCE AND IMPLEMENTATION

Abstract

The article analyzes the essential attitudes and related methods of cognitive linguistics from the point of view of a systematic approach to the object under study. The main attention is paid to theoretical and methodological provisions of the cognitive-discursive version of Russian linguocognitology. The aim of the work is to correlate the methodological foundations and practices of the cognitive-discursive approach based on them with the content of the universal principles of analysis proposed in systemology. On the basis of this logical procedure, using various methods of descriptive method (observation, generalization, deduction, interpretation), as well as illustrative language facts, the degree of compliance of the methodological basis of linguocognitology with the properties of language as a naturally functioning open system is established. Systems theory, or systemology, is presented as a General scientific fundamental platform that allows you to set and effectively solve multidimensional problems of particular branches of knowledge. The basic provisions of the conceptual analysis of language/speech units and its modifications, as well as frame semantics, methods of studying the categorical organization of language and some other approaches are considered. The article substantiates the systemological adequacy of the linguocognitive methodology in comparison with other approaches that have taken place in the history of linguistics. The most important principles of system analysis are involved in the analysis: modelability, purposefulness, poly – factoricity, integrity, interdependence of the system and environment, used in system research; the composition of the work is built in accordance with these principles. As a result, we emphasize the heuristic possibilities and the realized scientific contribution of cognitive-discursive language research to the understanding of its systemic nature.
