WORLD MODEL OICONYMIC FRAGMENT OF ANGLO-SAXON CUMBRIA SOCIETY
Abstract
The article reveals the formation process of a linguistic world picture in the form of an oiconymic fragment of a nomination world picture - an interference product of language and cultural traditions of Celtic population and Angle conquerors. Semantic research of oiconyms in an onomasiological aspect enables to see how an oiconymic fragment of a nomination world picture of Cumbria social stratum of the Anglo-Saxon period was formed. Formation of oiconymic nomination in dynamics, creation and evolution of oiconymic fragment of a nominative world picture of Cumbria society during the Anglo-Saxon conquest period were carried out according to linguistic and cultural experience and traditions of Celtic and Angle communities of the above mentioned space and time continuum. Research of oiconymic fragment of a world nominative picture of the Anglo-Saxon period is of great importance. The English language history begins since that period. Oiconymic lexicon semantics is some kind of storehouse of Celts and Angles relic world pictures fixed in appellatives of oiconymic etymons and lost in other lexicon elements of English language.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.12731/2218-7405-2014-2-19
