Abstract:
The project fits into the context of the current research of the Department of Ethnolinguistics, continuing and building on what has been achieved so far. The aim is to analyze the theories and methodologies for researching the linguistic expression of values – theories that are used in Europe and Bulgaria; to apply them in practice when studying certain models in the Bulgarian language.
Emphasis is placed on the assessment of a certain set of values (individual, society, hope, charity, motivation, responsiveness, tolerance, modesty) and the deriving of the most appropriate methodology for their study. In the process of work, attention will be paid to the uzus (usage).
Presentation of the results: research papers and review articles
