The contemporary cultural situation as a transition from modem to postmodern culture. // Tomsk State Pedagogical University Bulletin. 2000. Issue 3 (19). P. 7-9

The author examines the cultural situation of the pre¬sent in the article «The contemporary cultural situation as a transition from modem to postmodern culture». There are two general points of view on that subject: some re¬searchers suppose that this transition has been done and some are sure that it has been created artificially and the epoch of Modem hasn't been made jet. Having analyzed some home and foreign sources of literature the main characteristics of modem and postmodern cultures have been revealed. It proves that the human culture is in the transitional period.

Polysemantiks of the Modern Culture and Its Main Characteristics // Tomsk State Pedagogical University Bulletin. 2002. Issue 4 (32). P. 30-36

In the article «Polysemantiks of the modern culture and its main characteristics* the author examines the «settled» approaches to the cultural studies and selects their weak sides, which do not let perform the modern cultural situation from different points. The most identical approach is the hermeneutic approach presenting the textuality of the culture. Textuality and performativity - there are two main characteristics of the culture. Their interaction lies in the ground of the cultural polysemantik.

SEGMENTATION OF GERMAN LITERARY LANGUAGE STOCK THROUGH THE PRISM OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL APPROACH // Tomsk State Pedagogical University Bulletin. 2019. Issue 4 (201). P. 66-76

Introduction. The practice of segmentation of vocabulary is traditionally based either on a certain (situational) set of criteria for this procedure, or on a larger methodological basis for example the apparatus of a separate linguistic discipline, which often defaults to lexicology as a science about the lexical structure of the language. Being limited to the object of observation, lexicology is hardly capable of independently solving the question posed for the entire linguistic science or, at least, for such a macroscopic discipline as stylistics that urgently needs a reliable criteria base, despite their various functional specialization: stylistics studies the expressive, whereas lexicology the nominative function of language. The aim of the paper is to propose segmentation of the vocabulary fund of the German literary language through the prism of the environmental approach. Material and methods. The implementation of the epistemological (rational-empirical) framework of the environmental approach, which far exceeds not only the limits of the science of language, but also humanitarian knowledge in general, is determined by the specifics of being and development of the language itself as an anthropological phenomenon (loquens), erroneously attributed by poststructuralists exclusively to man. The basis of the environmental approach is the thesis about the environmental origin of the human language and the impossibility of its existence outside the Herder environment. Language exists in the “nutrient solution” of culture and acts as a connecting element of the social interaction of all individuals inhabiting this artificial world. The environmental approach is a capacious epistemological platform that is used to account for the various functional varieties of the language that serve as the basis for its vocabulary segmentation. Results and discussion. The following criteria have been developed for more weighted and general linguistic segmentation of a vocabulary on the example of the German literary language: a) selectivity, b) naturalness, c) reproducibility, d) temporality, e) age. The lexical system of the German language is taken as a model not by chance: the hybrid nature of this language idiom and the high heterogeneity (hybridity) of its resources correlating with it are an advantageous dialectical field of observing the phenomenon of a lexical system functional stratification. The apparatus of the environmental approach is formed by extensive interdisciplinary data that have become commonplace clichés in scientific use and help to obtain interdisciplinary meaningful and objective segmentation of the German literary language vocabulary. The scientific novelty is determined by the implementation of a fundamentally new set of criteria for identifying the components of the vocabulary system of the specified language based on the enlarged epistemological basis of the analysis. Conclusion. The proposed segmentation is intended to expand the boundaries of the lexicology apparatus of the German language, the ideas about the heterogeneity of its lexical system and its evolutionary laws. The data obtained can be used as a material for theoretical courses in lexicology and stylistics when training specialists in the field of German linguistics at all educational levels.
