Abstract

The study aims to determine which gender stereotypes actualise the concepts of MAN and WOMAN in the Kalmyk linguistic worldview. The article analyses paroemias of the Kalmyk language and a number of modern poetic works in order to find out how the studied stereotypes are reflected in modern texts. Since concepts can change, one ought to ascertain whether there are such changes. The study is novel in that it is the first to carry out a comparative analysis of these concepts in the proverbial stock of the language and in the modern Kalmyk literature. The results of the study have shown that the gender stereotypes actualised by proverbs exist, with minor changes, in modern texts as well.
