Resumo
Phenomenon of superstition is a communicative phenomenon in the linguistic consciousness, representing a complex interweaving of cognitive processes, discursive practices and linguacultural features. Superstitions reflect the collective experience of the people, their worldview and ways of comprehending reality. Thus, the relevance of the study is determined by the need for a comprehensive understanding of the phenomenon of superstition as a genre variety of predictive discourse, its functional role in the formation of the national linguistic picture of the world and its impact on communicative practices in modern socio-cultural conditions. The aim of the study is to comprehensively investigate superstition as a communicative phenomenon, including the characterization of its speech-genre forms, determination of its place in the structure of predictive discourse, as well as the analysis of the mechanisms of behavioral patterns formation in different socio-cultural conditions. The research is based on the complex application of general scientific methods of analysis and synthesis, as well as special methods of linguacultural analysis. On the example of a large number of Russian superstitions under study, the author proves the dominant role of mentality and ethno-cultural influence on the process of their emergence and transformation, as well as manifests the manifestation of ancient magical behavioral patterns in modern interpretations. The results of the study can become a methodological basis for further scientific research in the field of linguacultural studies and ethnolinguistics, as well as contribute to a fuller understanding of the mechanisms of functioning of superstitious beliefs in modern linguistic consciousness. The prospectivity of this research direction is determined by its potential in the field of in-depth understanding of the mechanisms of functioning of superstitious representations in modern linguistic consciousness, as well as their role in the formation of communicative practices.
