Культурная оппозиция «свое ‒ чужое»: русские личные и притяжательные местоимения в языковом воплощении лексического концепта «патриотизм»

The article presents the peculiarities of language objectification of basic archaic cultural opposition “my, our own ‒ alien” by mean of Russian personal and possessive pronouns’ semantics and functioning. The purpose is to detect how the 1st and 2nd person pronouns in their non-referential usage get potentiality to form conceptual content and language representation of the concept “patriotism”. The methodology includes methods of referential and conceptual analysis. The material is the data of lexicographic sources, Russian national Corpus and the authors’ internet-monitoring. The study shows that Russian personal and possessive pronouns contribute most to language expression of culturally significant opposition of “circles ours, our own” and circle “others, aliens”, of values of “own world” and “alien world”. The findings are that the fact of conceptual contraposition of the 1st and the 2nd person pronouns is to be included in linguo-cognitive description of the concept “patriotism”.
