RELIGIOUS COMPONENT OF VALUE IN THE CONTENT OF THE CONCEPT CHARITÉ

Abstract

The article discusses features of the gospel theological understanding of the value of love in the content of the concept “Charité” (charity). The concept “Charité”, not being a religious concept, combines in its space representations of a high degree of cultural significance associated with both Church and secular themes. The authors of the article focus on the micro concept of l’amour ̒ love̓ , as it has the most objectivization in the text of the Gospel. Substantial, linguo-cognitive and semantic features of the micro-concept “amour” love are highlighted in the framework of religious Christian discourse. In order to identify the specifics of the functioning of the studied concept, an analysis of linguistic and cultural and theological sources is carried out. The work is carried out in the mainstream of cognitive linguistics and discourse theory. Relevance is to consider aspects of expanding the semantic potential of the same name Charity.
