    CATEGORII CONCEPTUALE ALE EMOŢIILOR REDATE DE EXPRESII FRAZEOLOGICE SOMATICE CU COMPONENTA LEXICALĂ „OCHI”
    (2017) Lifari, Viorica
    Phraseological units that include a somatic component represent a vast linguistic material for researching the spiritual culture in different languages. In this paper we study the somatic phraseological units that contain the word “eye” in the English, Romanian and Russian languages from the cognitive linguistics perspective. The examples have been collected from dictionaries and classified according to the “image of the eye” which is associated with a certain emotive concep tual category. Also we have analyzed the phraseological units according to the semantic criteria suggested by the American professor G. Lakoff when researching the conceptual metaphor. Another method used in this paper is that of the Image Schema that is largely used by the Polish linguist A. Wierzbicka in her papers about universality/non-universality of emotion concepts in many cultures. Having conducted the study we identified cultural similarities and differences in the conceptualization of emotion categories in the three languages and have identified different “images of the eye” that describe the conceptual categories of emotions in English, Romanian and Russian.

    THE CONCEPTUAL CATEGORIES OF EMOTIO NS RENDERED BY THE IMAGE OF “THE HEART” USED IN SO MATIC PHRASEOLOGICAL UNITS
    (CEP USM, 2016) Lifari, Viorica
    The phraseological units with a somatic lexeme comprise a big amount of linguistic evidence for studying the spiritual culture in different languages. In this paper we conducted a research of somatic phraseological units that contain the “heart” lexeme in the English, Romanian and Russian Languages. The examples under analysishave been collected from dictionaries and classified according to “the heart” image which denotes a certain conceptual category of emotions. The study was performed following the semantic criteria suggested by the American professor G. Lakoff, the Romanianresearcher N. Anghelescu and also by the famous Polish linguist A. Wierzbicka. Having completed the research we identified similarities and differences both in the category of emotion concept and in the images of ‘the heart” that describe these concepts in the three languages of study. The results of the investigation are reflected in tables contained in the paper
