Abstract

The article reveals the concept interpretation shift from a static to dynamic mental structure. The description is done within East European schools of cognitive linguistics correlating with works of psychologists, biologists and philosophers. The author analyses approaches that were widely used by researchers in treating the concept term – the psychological, logical-philosophical, culturological, integrative ones. Summarizing the approaches, the author singles out the main concept features within the modern stage of cognitive linguistics. Finally, author’s own concept definition is formed: a mental dynamic information unit whose verbal name represents a collective empirical unity of individual contacts with the material world, describes attitude to it and shows community development.
