The Historical Formation and Contemporary Development of Russian Cognitive Semantics
Russian cognitive semantics is a combination of Russian traditional theoretical semantics and western cognitive semantics,which is not only the inheritance and development of Russian traditional semantics,but also a new paradigm of semantic research.This discipline was formally born in the early 21st century and belongs to an important research direction under the framework of Russian cognitive linguistics.Russian cognitive semantics has a rich research foundation.On the one hand,it inherits the excellent ideas of Russian traditional theoretical linguistics,on the other hand,it actively absorbs the ideas of Western cognitive linguistics and reasonably applies them to the cognitive study of Russian,thus promoting the localization of Russian cognitive linguistics and the formation of unique Russian cognitive semantics.The purpose of this paper is to sort out the ideological basis and birth process of Russian cognitive semantics,clarify its development context and the main contemporary research directions in this field.
