The article describes the characteristic features of
British political discourse, its historical development
and the formation and characteristics of the British
sense of humor. We noted that political humor reflects
the mood and attitude of trends in politics. Political
discourse has been viewed as socially-oriented
communication, which is in the nature of persuasive
and compelling communication, dominated by the
imperative type of speech, which, in turn, creates
preconditions for the implementation of the comic. We
have defined defamatory, socially critical, and
harmonizing functions. Special attention is paid to the
role of the addressee, as the factor, which determines
the political communication's aim. We have observed
that British politicians use humor carefully so as not to
provoke their opponents and dissenters in mocking
their use of humor or turning their statements against
themselves. The article contains the analysis of
illustrative material consisting of quotations of the
British political and public figures. English humor can
be studied from the point of view of transformational
grammar, in which case the jokes are divided into
prosaic and poetic ones. Prosaic jokes are based on
social and cultural situations, human interactions.
Poetical jokes are based on grammatical forms and
their irregular usage

The article deals with the problem of author
identification in the early autobiographical prose of
Boris Pasternak. In his early autobiography "Safe
Conduct" the poet searches for artistic and personal
self-identification. Unlike the traditional genre of
autobiography, "Safe Conduct" is based not on
memory of real facts but on sensual feelings from
them. It means that autobiographical prose created by
the poet reduces the real biographical facts, filling
gaps with emotions and feelings. This feature coupled
with fragmentariness of narrative fragmentation tends
“challenge to biographism”. Indulging in memories,
searching for artistic self-identification the poet
defines his own identity. Search for himself Pasternak
associates with biography of "other" people, who have
played a great role in formation of his personality.
“Safe Conduct” is tractate on someone else's creative
genius. Meanwhile the author puts himself aside and
takes a reset position towards “other” talents. These
relationships have a repeated temper. Firstly, the
author admires someone’s talent, coming closer to it,
and then breaks up with it, and finds his own way. The
final goal of self-identification is poetry; the author
closes to it through philosophy and music, overcomes
their attractiveness and leaves them. The fundamental
feature of Pasternak’s poetry and biography is the
necessity to identify and understand himself through
"alien", "other" things

poorly investigated; the study of it is presented in
modern literature only in the form of reviews and
analysis of some of the concepts and motives. Scientific
paper actualizes the problem of artistic method in the
works of the writer. It is difficult to classify into one
particular artistic method the work of many modern
writers. The installations of several trends intersect in
works some of them, even contradictory sometimes.

and the other world, also mentions personal and
psychological motives as an art installation of women’s
prose. Furthermore, with a postmodern understanding

works, some constants of postmodernism are revealed

A language for professional communication is formed and exists due to the human need for language design of special information that he develops in the course of targeted special activities. The pace and direction of modern society and technology development contribute to the continuous formation of new concepts and terms that requires study and systematization. The formation of new terms takes place due to the augmentation of the new additional content of the known concepts, which acquire their structure and boundaries. The increment of meanings is due to the metaphorical functioning of vocabulary in the language, which is a cognitive mechanism re-categorization of an object. The article is made in line with current studies of cognitive aspects of language activity in the professional field and is devoted to the analysis of anticoncept as a reflection of the development of the concept. Anticoncept is the result of internal cognitive conflict of cognition objects. Shaping itself, it pushes off and at the same time can “finish” concept. This peculiarity is demonstrated in the dichotomy brown economy – green economy, where the concept is less developed than anticoncept and shows asymmetry. Despite the fact that anticoncept is an anomaly relative to concept, it is more detailed and, perhaps, precisely because of its unusualness. The imbalance in the conceptualization of the professional activities fragments emerging due to characteristics of concept spheres is emphasized
