Communicati vely conditioned verbalization of the concept «crisis » in economic discourse

Abstract

The article explores the lexico-semantic field
of the concept «crisis». The notions «field» and «concept»
are defined. With the help of a psycholinguistic method the
author formulates a generalized definition of the concept «crisis
». The semes of the definition under study are revealed
by means of the componential analysis. The structure of the
lexico-semantic field «crisis», its core and the periphery are
determined. The contextual analysis allowed to reveal block
diagrams of compatibility of the concept base nomination. Its
derivational usage of capacity is revealed. The experiment
showed that peripheral conceptual features of the concept
«crisis», as well as a stimulus word, receive unambiguously
negative assessment that testifies to the open way of information
presentation. The author gives examples of negative
loading levelling of the language unit «crisis». The article reveals
communicative conditions in which the concept crisis
aims to block or generate the release of information.
