О РАЗВИТИИ НАПРАВЛЕНИЙ ПРЕЦЕДЕНТНОЙ ЛИНГВИСТИКИ

Abstract

Precedence as one of the most universal categories in our thinking arouses an unflagging interest in the paradigm of modern humanitarian and social knowledge. The purpose of the article is the proof of the hypothesis about interparadigmality of precedent linguistics as a research field whose object is precedence units. The urgency of the problem is caused by the fact that the study of any manifestation of precedence in linguistic, cognitive, semiotic and cultural projection possesses a high heuristic potential. The scientific novelty consists in the attempt to find similarity in the terms scientifically different in linguo-philosophical meaning - “precedence”, “cross-cultural communication”, “globalization” and adaptation of new terms within precedent linguistics. The article deals with a scientific discussion about the specifics of precedent thought as ontologically predominating in the system of thinking which is realized by precedent units. It leads to the conclusion that any language system goes back to precedent thinking as genetically precedent. It means that precedent language units as the object of a linguistic analysis are initially devoid of research perspective. Nevertheless, a scientific interest to precedent units is explained not only by purely worldview value of precedence phenomena but also by the field of linguistic knowledge expressed by precedent units with the help of certain linguistic mechanisms in the realization of concrete language processes. In this case one can see an opportunity of linking the researched object - precedent units - to the other systems of scientific coordinates. For the analysis of precedent units there is a set of special linguistic methods - the method of precedent, precedent modeling, reconstructions of cognitive structures, transformation, etc. The research resulted in the increase of terms methodologically obligatory for precedent linguistics: a precedent reality, a precedent sentence, a precedent object, etc. Therefore, the following thesis was formulated: the cognitive nature of a precedent is a reproduced meaning which is the basis of lexical, grammatical and other language meanings. It is established that precedent units are semiotic signs of precedent thinking. They have a national and cultural identity and simultaneously cross-cultural universality. In terms of linguistics they also possess a global categorical status.
