Abstract

Interdisciplinary cognitive research is a characteristic feature of the 21st century. This article discusses the ways of integrating the methodologies of history and cognitive linguistics. The objective for the representatives of both sciences is to explore the laws of thinking, mental models, and knowledge structures. Recordings of the radio program “The American Family Robinson”, released in the United States during the Great Depression, served as a historical source. The broadcasting series are considered in the article from the standpoint of their manipulative impact on the mass consciousness of the population. The method of integrated research is frame analysis. Within the framework of cognitive methodology, the concept of a single space of manipulation has been developed, and frame configurations have been identified. The results contribute to manipulation studies and cognitive distortion research.
