The work is devoted to the linguo-cognitive study of the Pride and Pridefulness concept in the religious and linguistic consciousness of a Muslim and Orthodox. The timeliness of the proposed topic is determined, firstly, by the increased interest of scientists in recent decades in the problems of the relationship between language and religion (as evidenced by the emergence of the young science of theolinguistics); secondly, the research prospects and timeliness in line with cognitive linguistics and linguoculturology; thirdly, the topic of this article is underexplored and promising (this is especially relevant in relation to Islamic discourse and Orthodoxy and Islam religious consciousness comparative study); finally, being at the intersection point of the theology and cognitive linguistics interests, the study provides a serious empirical basis for their development. The article attempts to verify the notion that exists in the Avars and Russians ethnic consciousness (through these languages) about the meanings contained in the concept Pride and Pridefulness as negatively evaluative in the light of the religious picture of the world. The authors executed sacred (spiritual) texts and proverbs comparative analysis of the Avar and Russian languages in order to present the frame-based organization of the researched concept in the religious and linguistic picture of the world. The structure and position of the frame are described, slots (vertical and terminal) are identified in the frame-based structure of the analyzed language units, the slots occupancy of similar proverbs of the two researched languages is compared, and the proverbs structure is sequentially modeled. Comparison of the religious (Islamic) picture with the naive picture of the world, determination of their similarities and differences on the material of two languages with different structures allows us to conclude that there is an ambiguous (sometimes contradictory) structure of the Pride and Pridefulness concept-frame.
The article is devoted to the problem of representation of the value component of the concept "Faith/Unbelief" in religious and paremiological discourses of different structural languages. The main purpose of the study is to establish similarities and differences in the linguistic objectification of spiritual values/anti–values in the Avar and Russian linguistic cultures based on the concept of "Faith/Disbelief", which is one of the basic concepts affecting all the value-behavioral spheres of human existence. In the religious consciousness of a believer (whether he is a Christian or a Muslim), by its very nature, there is a craving for virtue, a desire to ennoble morals, comprehension and nomination of all this occurs through specific linguistic signs and their meanings. The conceptual, value and figurative components of the concept under study are considered. The actualization in lexical systems of various languages, lexemes with religious (Islamic) meaning, the large-scale activity of texts of this subject in various genres, especially in mass media texts, put forward new promising directions of interdisciplinary research for linguists. The novelty of the research consists both in the development of research in the aspect of comparative theolinguistics for the first time on the material of these languages, and in the integral use of linguoconceptual and theoconceptual methods. The article traces the close connection of cognitive features of the conceptual field under study and spiritual and moral concepts that have their own specifics in each of the compared languages during linguistic verbalization.
