Abstract

Due to the shift to the cognitive and functional perspective of linguistic knowledge in the 1970s, the linguistic science became closer to the human thinking and goals of communication. In investigating lexemes of various thematic fields, it is essential to combine the knowledge of structural and cognitive linguistics involving the componential analysis, logic-linguistic analysis, and the associative experiment. The present paper aimed to indicate the combination of these methods as examples of units belonging to the thematic field “landscape†. The sphere of lexical-semantic system, which was associated with thematic scope “landscape†, was represented in all world languages. The research on the specificity of formation and structure of the thematic field “landscape†in Russian and English discovered common models of the formation process of lexical units’ meanings. This contributed to the successful resolution of an urgent problem of modern linguistics. The problem existed in relationships of a lexical unit and a concept that was defined by this lexical unit.
