Abstract
The article analyzes the conceptual foundations of the linguistic consciousness of Oleksandr Dovzhenko, a symbolic figure in the history of Ukrainian culture, literature, and language. Taking into account the broad interpretation of language consciousness in world science, the units of its implementation in the artistic and journalistic heritage of the artist are singled out – timeless ideologues Ukraine, people, history, language as cross-cutting ethnocentric components of Ukrainian national identity. An analysis of the dictionary of modern language was carried out, in particular, the lexemes intellectual, nationalism, patriotism in the interpretation of the thinker. Their lexical, semantic, stylistic, pragmatic text manifestations in the authorʼs reception and taking into account the cultural and historical prerequisites of creating diary entries are revealed.
Reflections on the mission of the artist in history, symbolic ethnic values for Ukrainians, united by the idea of national dignity are indicative of the language of the diary entries. The emotional dialogue of the language creates the effect of a conversation with all generations of Ukrainians.
O. Dovzhenkoʼs linguistic awareness testifies to the continuity of Ukrainian spiritual values even in times of statelessness. The thinker in the conditions of the totalitarian regime, fighting for the opportunity to be a writer, cinematographer, produced for his own people the cornerstone ideas of identity, which remain relevant even for our time.
Key words: language consciousness, national identity, language thinking, ideologeme, sema, lexical-semantic processes, evaluability.
