The cognitive-discursive model of evidentiality (authorization)

The paper discusses some functional aspects of evidentiality in scientific discourse and dialect speech in Russian. The aim is to show how evidentiality, traditionally called authorization in Russian, can be studied from functional and cognitive-discursive points of view. The authors propose a methodology of revealing additive meanings of evidential (authorizational) structures based on interpretation of subjective components of speech. The interpretation is based on the authorization model proposed by the authors

The autobiographical story as a means of modeling global events

In this article we will discuss the speech genre of autobiograohical narrative as a means of modeling global events. As a source of information about global events oral stories of people who live in Siberian villages, representatives of peasant folk culture, are analyzed. The research was carried out using the material of Russian old-dialects in the Middle Ob, reflecting the theme of the Great Patriotic War. War is presented as a global event that has become autobiographical. There is a schematic representation of the elements included in the speech genre of the autobiographical story. The genre scheme has its transformation types which are discussed depending on various factors. A conclusion is made on the world modeling potential of autobiographical texts
