Abstract

The subject of study in the article is the concept of «sports doctor» in autobiographical discourse considered on the material of the book «Seeing with Your Hands – My Life and my Medicine» (in original: «Mein Leben und mein Medizin. Mit den Händen sehen») written by German sports Doctor Hans-Wilhelm Müller-Wolfarth. The purpose of the study is to analyze this concept in the linguistic and cultural aspect. The findings make up a number of functionally significant features of the «sports doctor» concept. This concept has the following features: 1) it is kaleidoscopic, it includes such aspects as «responsibility», «selflessness», «dedication», etc.; 2) it integrates a wide range of medical terms; 3) it is filled with various lexical and semantic groups, for example, «Organism», «Trauma», «Medicines». The research carried out in this article presents the results that can be used in 
 research and teaching activities related to training at a medical university. This article deals with a discursive and conceptual analysis and a contextological method, a method of classification and description.
