Teaching Cognitive Linguistics Methods at Master Degree Programmes
Abstract
Elena S. Milkevich (Rostov-on-Don, Russian Federation)
Cognitive linguistics combines knowledge of different sciences, such as philosophy, linguistics, psychology, neuroscience, anthropology, mathematical statistics and others. Therefore, cognitive linguistics uses specific methods and types of analyses. Among them is the method of corpus analysis, which is widely used in cognitive research. The Master Degree Programme “Digital technologies in philology. Computer linguistics” at Southern Federal University, Russia, Rostov-on-Don, aims at enabling students to master modern methods and other tools applicable in cognitive research. The teaching process covers several stages. They are: critical analysis of published corpus analysis research, working out the algorithm of conducting the corpus research, practical application of the corpus method, reading widely papers on cognitive linguistics when coming across some tricky points, arguing basic propositions of cognitive linguistics used in the research.
Key words: master degree programme, digital humanities, cognitive linguistics, British National Corpus, corpus analysis, cognitive metaphor, cognitive metonymy, metaphtomy.
