Popova N. Nationally tagged Concepts’ Evolution in the Language World View of Spain (the 16th-20th Centuries).

The dissertation deals with the evolutionary processes of nuclear and peripheral zones of nationally tagged concepts of Spain of the 16th–20th centuries which determine main developing vectors of the national conceptual sphere and evolve under the influence of historical, cultural, social, political and ethical peculiarities of Spaniards’ world view perception. The synchronic-diachronic analysis of the national conceptual sphere includes all its components, explaining reasons of nation minds’ conceptual changes, in which the associative component connects all areas of social life and activity and reflects nationally specific way of flowing of nation representatives’ logical and thinking processes, as evidenced by the concepts interpretive field that encompasses their informational and value component, subjected to cognitive-evaluative operations of national consciousness existing in state-ideological, catholic-religious and everyday-life forms.
