Firsova Y. Phraseological Units with a Toponymic Component in German: Linguo-Cultural Aspect.

The dissertation focuses on the study of dialogical discourse: its composition and development in relation to logical, semantic, pragmatic and communicative peculiarities of evaluation as a linguistic category. Following the principles of discourse analysis, the axiological structure of dialogical communication as well as language means of realising different types of evaluation in dialogical discourse have been examined. It has been proved that the presence of axiological structure components in discourse may serve as the criterion for its identification as a specific evaluative discourse; while global axiological macrostrategy can be looked upon as the distinguishing feature of evaluative subdiscourse used as a component of another discourse. The thesis provides a typology of discursive axiological tactics.
