Структура лингвокультурных концептов труд / в русской и китайской картинах мира на материале публицистических текстов 1940-х - 1970-х годов

Purpose. The article is dedicated to analyzing of concepts LABOR / 劳动 as basic ideas in worldviews of the Russian and Chinese national cultures on the material of the 1940s - 1970s publicist contexts from the “National Corpus of the Russian language” and the “National Corpus of the Chinese language”.Results. The analysis of the contexts revealed the main cognitive features that form the structure of the concepts LABOR / 劳动, identified similarities and differences in their worldviews. It has been proved that both the Russian concept LABOR and the Chinese concept 劳动 have the basic blocks of different degrees of ideologization in their structure, associated with the typical elements of the situation of labor in the worldviews of socialist society: subject (collective laborer), characteristic of labor (pace, selflessness), attitude to labor (joyful labor), result of labor( in the linguistic consciousness of the Russians - for society and country, in the linguistic consciousness of the Chinese - for society and for person), labor process (intensity, detailed labor conditions in Chinese texts), labor addressee (society / country as conditional recipient of labor result), the object of labor (natural resources, the results of technological progress).Conclusion. In both worldviews, representations of labor are conceptualized through the use of metaphor - struggle with an abbreviated scenario (the collective subject, conditional opponent - capitalism, a process without clear stages, inevitable victory). A feature of the Russian concept of LABOR is the presence of an extensive block of ideas about the heroism of workers.
