COGNITIVE MODEL OF THE POEM «THE COMING OF NIGHT» BY N. RUBTSOV

Abstract

Modern research in linguistic science focuses on the study of both man in language and language in man in line with the anthropocentric approach. The new paradigm gave impetus to the study of language and speech as a result of mental activity expressed by various linguistic and non-linguistic means (signs, gestures, facial expressions, etc.). In this regard, there is an increasing interest in studying the methods of verbalization, representation of the surrounding reality in language to identify the individual picture of the world of a linguistic personality, determining its conceptual sphere from the position of cognitive linguistics, reflecting and influencing the native speaker of cultural codes from the position of linguoculturology, identifying the author's vision of the world in the text of works of art from the position of text linguistics, etc. This research is carried out in line with a new direction of linguistic poetics – cognitive poetics, which focuses on the poetic text as an integral education. N. Rubtsov's poem “The Coming of Night” is used as a material for analyzing a poetic text from the perspective of cognitive poetics in order to identify its cognitive model. In connection with the formation of cognitive poetics as a new direction, its methodology is in the process of formation. The work applies the achievements of linguistics in the field of studying concepts, identifying their semantic structure, taking into account methodological requirements for cognitive analysis of the text. The work involves a complex of scientific methods and techniques, including the continuous sampling method, SEO analysis, the method of linguistic observation, the method of interpretation, modeling techniques, as well as general scientific methods. The analysis of the poetic text is presented in the form of a step-by-step algorithm: justification of the choice of the poetic text, identification of conceptually significant information from the title of the poetic text, isolation of its semantic core, definition of the cognitive model of the poetic text. The value of the research undertaken is to expand the understanding of the principles of cognitive analysis of a poetic text in order to model it. The results obtained can be extrapolated to identify the basic models of the conceptual sphere of individual poets in synchrony and diachrony.
