The article focuses on the place of the (Thieves')
Notions in the hierarchy of values in criminal activity
from the viewpoint of functional-pragmatic typology
of linguasemiotic experience. The Notions are
intentions (intentials) that correlate to the upper (The
Thieves' Law) and lower (Limits/Thieves'
Commandments) levels of the hierarchy of values.
The Notions were described in diachronic aspect with
regard to their place and esoteric functions in the
Master Felons' Law. The functional-pragmatic
typology was aimed to show the differences in the
ways of distribution of reference features
(categorization processes), what reflects in
formalization (ritualization and folkization) of social
behaviour. Such approach was based on a panchronic
connection of the idea of informational kind to the
idea of energo-material kind. When correlating with
the upper level of the hierarchy of values, the Notions
can be considered a Random Access Memory
connected to a slow encoded memory of greater
capacity (The Thieves' Law). The Notions provide for
a faster reaction of an individual when making a
choice in criminal activity

The article deals with different approaches how to
interfere texts analysis in the program of teaching
foreigners (on the basis of the Russian language).
According to our research, for beginners it is more
reasonably to use and analyze real texts, as far as these
texts are close to life, have simple vocabulary and
grammar. For the virtual texts the situation is the
opposite. The main aim of the author is to please the
reader, that is why the author uses a lot of tropes,
metaphors, figures and very complex grammar to show
the beauty of his language. For foreign students this
may be a problem at the beginning, because they are
not good in the language and it is very hard to
understand. The analysis of the virtual texts is better to
do on the base or advanced level
This article deals with the examination of the peculiarities of the conceptual sphere of “CREATIVITY” using the cognitive approach to the language study. Key concepts of this conceptosphere are defined and lexemes that represent it are analyzed
The article is concerned with proxemic communication connected with changing the relative positioning of communicants when interacting, in fictional prose of K.D. Vorobyov. This essential part of interaction is implied with the individual author’s approach to verbal representation of corresponding features and lexis’s choice preferences, its quantitative and qualitative characteristics in the writer’s fictional prose. By analogy with the term paracinema, the term paraproxema is also used for defining these kinds of language phenomena. Paraproxemas were analyzed with reference to semantic, stylistic and morphological aspects. There are two thematic groups of terms with the reference to retract and extend of the relative positioning of communicants being defined in the article. The distribution is based on semantics of verbs and function words. Changing the relative positioning of communicants changes the social zone and reports different information as exemplified with three stories of K.D. Vorobyov. The mutual influence of paracinemas and paraproxemas creates the integrated image of communicants, which gestures, facial expressions, and movements not only accompany but also complete speech
Nowadays a foreign language study becomes more
required; consequently, it is important to use various
technologies for an effective result after finishing the
studies. The project technique is a modern one and it
has a number of principles, such as the activity
principle, visual principle, communicative principle,
availability and realization principles, the principle of
regional specification and minimization. Their correct
use facilitates the development of a foreign
communicative competence of non-linguistic students
This article explores the difficulties in translation and interpretation of the mythological terminology, and discusses proper names, their ability to be used as an allusive signs. The article distinguished 3 groups of allusive proper nouns and their comparative analysis is conducted
The article aims to show the problems, which a
researcher has to face during the analysis of the
Thieves’ Law. The Thieves Law is considered as a
synthesis of texts that can be decomposed into subsets
of smaller texts. The originals of such texts in various
languages were lost, and their later translations and
compilations made the analysis more difficult. The
synthesis of such texts is viewed through the prism of
generally understood Kabbalah, and the main
principle is an esoteric search for the "inner sense"
that is based on the algorithms and stereotypes in
criminal activity. The mental spaces of legal law and
religious systems give a reference space of the
Thieves Law by such approach. The parts of such
mental spaces contradictory to others are removed
from this reference space. Not only words but also
phrases, sentences, texts, and even sets of texts, any
multilevel signs at accidental and planned asymmetry
in form and essence become codifying elements in
sources full of allegory and parable. The analysis is
based on a synthesis of views by L.N. Gumilev, U.
Eco, and O.V. Leszczak
