Mazepova O. Lingual conceptualization of the human inner world in the Persian lingua-mental space

The human inner world is an object difficult for comprehension - it is some subjective reality, which may be neither directly explored nor empirically analyzed. It is unique since it may be explored only via facts and phenomena revealed outwardly. Achievements of the Cognitive Linguistics and the Cultural Linguistics in combination with psycho-linguistic methods of researching the semantics can open promising perspectives for the linguistic analysis ensuring the approach to studying conceptual structures, which exist in the human consciousness and comprise the knowledge about the Universe. The human inner world in the light of the Cognitive Linguistics appears as a part of general picture of the world embossed in the human psychics and verbalized by certain language. In the focus of exploration is lingual conceptualization of several fragments at the concept-sphere of the human inner world in the Persian lingua-mental space.
