The paper describes thematic unit within the course «Fundamentals of cultural linguistics, «which reveals the religious beliefs of the members of lingual culture and the peculiarities of their reproduction in the language system, the role in the formation and development of the linguistic view of the world. Consideration of sacred concepts from the perspective of linguistics includes analysis of macro concepts at the level of categorizing the religious sphere («Religious ideas of ancestors of Ukrainians», «Christian ideas and their reflection in the Ukrainian lingual culture»). Organization of lexical work of philology students with Biblical texts/linguistic units denoting sacred concepts includes: 1) analysis of the structural and semantic features of inherent (the ones that correlate on structure and semantics with original text of the Old and New Testaments, a concrete biblical situation) and superimposed (their semantics suffered changes within historical development) sorts of biblical phrases; 2) functional peculiarities of syntactic constructions in biblical texts that embody the concept of monotheism (rhetorical questions, syntactic constructions with subordinate fragment having semantic shade «the truth/righteousness»; syntactic constructions that reproduce the correlation of allegorical expressions with life situations); 3) studying the evangelical motives in literature; 4) comparing the sacred concepts of soul/heart/God in different lingual cultures (including within Christianity – Orthodox/Catholic). A Prospect of further research is the development of thematic units within intercultural communication. An organisation of work with educational materialals involves the submission of linguo-cultural commentary to the names (ideas) of the works of Ukrainian authors that have roots of biblical interpretation (Panas Mirny «Do oxen low when mangers are full» / biblical expression, Lina Kostenko «Mary Churai» / thorn-bush, Olha Kobylianska «Earth» / Cain seal; Ivan Bagrianyi «Garden of Gethsemane» / Gethsemane; Garden of Gethsemane; Vasyl Stus «Nativity scene», «Promised Land» / The Promised Land). Didactic support considers the interpretation of the concept of «truth» from the perspective of linguistics, lingual culture, lingual philosophy, us well us execution using the example of linguistic and cultural analysis of binary oppositions (righteousness/sin; faith/wickedness, law/grace); cause and effect determination (sin/penance, crime/punishment, faith/eternal life); clarification of the stylistic features of rhetorical questions of biblical expressions.
The publication reveals the issue of an organization of work of the future teachers of philology with onomastic material (on the example of Ukrainian language). The theoretical principles of the use of linguacultural approach concerning the study of language materials by future philologists have been analyzed. The analysis of the stages of development of Ukrainian given names considering pagan and Christian periods of Ukrainian linguaculture formation in general, Ukrainian Onomasticon – in particular have been conducted; the features of phonetic and morphological adaptation of Ukrainian given names have been distinguished. Author substantiates the feasibility of methodological principles, methods and teaching tools within the triad «Ethnos – Language – Culture», which correlates with the achievements of related studies (linguistics, ethnopsycholinguistics, social psychology, sociolinguistics); consideration of ethnocultural and sociolinguistic factors in the studying process from the perspective of studying subject’s status – the future philologist – linguaculture bearer; identity that is formed by means of language studying. Philological studies’ teaching from the perspective of linguaculture involves the development of linguistic world image as well as the skills of discursive producing of texts considering the national specifics of semantic nuances of language units; consideration of the transmission of language, mental characteristic of linguaculture bearer. Organization of work of students-philologists with onomastic material should consider the following key points: development of linguacultural literacy of the future teachers-philologists is constituted on linguacultural approach which is used in the sense of observation of language (within our research – onomastic) material by promoting the development of cognitive (linguistic), axiological and communicative components of study competence. Work with onomastic material (on the example of Ukrainian language) involves: 1) identification of general semantics, nationally designated semantics of Given names (including – proper names); discursive potential of phraseological units of onomastic component as precedent units of Ukrainian linguaculture; 2) cognitive-pragmatic modeling of semantics of autochthonic Slavic and Christian Given names and their corresponding semantics phraseology; 3) consideration of specifics of onomastic representation of elements of language awareness; 4) destinction of the national-cultural component of onomastic meaning; 5) identification of value accent of onomastic semantics; 6) lexicographic and paremiographic representation of spectrum of semantics and value of Ukrainian anthroponyms and phraseology units with onomastic component. The prospect of further research comes from the observation of the structural and semantic features of Ukrainian Given names from the position of linguaculture.
