Abstract
Aim. To study the language and conceptual sphere of E. I. Zamyatin’s journalistic works and to identify their individual specificity.
Methodology. The paper examines the main linguistic and conceptual features of E. I. Zamyatin’s journalism from the standpoint of linguistic-cultural and cognitive-discursive approaches. The paper reveals the distinctive conceptual and linguostylistic features of Zamyatin’s journalistic texts, indicating the specificity, linguistic originality and highly professional level of the individual media-speech of their author. Using the method of conceptual analysis, the study examined the previously unexplored individual conceptual sphere of the writer’s journalistic works and the means of its linguistic representation.
Results. It is concluded that the writer’s original journalism, owing to the original manner of narration, methods of design and presentation of linguistic material, skillfully used means of artistic expression which ensure the maximum impact, has a strongly marked discursive nature and acts as a bright national-cultural phenomenon that deserves special research.
Research implications. The results of the research expand and complement the understanding of the phenomenon of Zamyatin’s journalistic discourse in terms of its conceptual, linguistic and stylistic organization.
