Abstract

The article features the structure and content of the concept "the exiled" in the Angaralinguoculture. Using conceptual analysis method, the author identified and examined conceptual and value layers of the concept "the exiled" in the oral stories and interviews with the residents of the North Angara river basin (Kezhemsky, Bogychansky and Motyginsky districts of Krasnoyarskregion). The originality of the study is in the fact that it is the first time the concept in question has been investigated on the basis of the Angarabasin residents’ oral stories and interviews. The study was conducted in the frames of the communicative-discursive paradigm of the modern linguistics. Its topicality is based on the fact that the conceptosphere of the Angaralinguoculture remains largely understudied. Moreover, researches of the moral culture of the Angarabasin residents have important sociocultural value since the population was mostly resettled after the construction of the Bogychany hydroelectric power station and flooding of villages in Kezhemsky district of Krasnoyarsk region. The research findings broaden the empirical basis of linguoculturology and communicative dialectology and clarify the peculiarities of the concept "the exiled" in the regional Siberian linguoculture. The author established that the explication of the value layer of the concept «the exiled» was verbalized via evaluative adverbs and adjectives. Positive normative (rationalistic),
