| Popis: | Investigating concepts is a continuing concern within applied linguistics. In the context of any fiction the concepts LIFE – DEATH gain new individual and authors’ and cultural meanings. This indicates a need to further research. So far the investigation of conceptual opposition LIFE – DEATH in the novel of James Joyce “A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man” allows determining individual and author’s meanings of the concepts. A combination of methods is used in the research including semantic and cognitive interpretation of the context, conceptual analysis, and statistical analysis of key lexemes. The results suggest that the conceptual opposition LIFE – DEATH is not constant. It is developing throughout personal development (childhood, youth, and adolescence) of the main character Stephen Dedalus. Individual and author’s meanings of these concepts include religious, temporal, local, perceptive and appraisive components. |
