Лингвосемиотический аспект изучения глюттонии в говорах Байкальской Сибири (на примере денотативной группы знаков)

Abstract

The paper presents a fragment of the linguosemiotic system of gluttony in subdialects of Russian old residents of Baikal Siberia, i.e. signs that perform a denotative function in the gastronomic dialect discourse. The aim of the research is to identify linguistic means that transpose images of food, its qualificative, locative, operational and subjective characteristics into the dialect discourse from the standpoint of linguosemiotics. The paper identifies a denotative group of signs consisting of personality signs, gluttonym signs, locative signs, instrumentative signs and qualificative signs on the basis of linguosemiotic parametrisation. A subgroup of gluttonym signs is presented as the most representative one, with its thematic differentiation revealing the peculiarities of the food culture of dialect speakers against the background of interethnic interaction. The specificity of denoting less representative groups of denotative signs is demonstrated. The research is novel in that it is the first to analyse gluttony in subdialects of Russian old residents of Baikal Siberia from the standpoint of linguosemiotics. “The Dictionary of Subdialects of Russian Old Residents of Baikal Siberia” by G. V. Afanasyeva-Medvedeva has not yet been studied in the proposed aspect. As a result, the representative features of the signs belonging to the denotative group of gluttony in the subdialects, as well as the peculiarities of the gluttony worldview of dialect speakers have been determined.
