Socio-Cultural Analysis of the Script "Kyrgyz Wedding"
Abstract
The research studies the Kyrgyz wedding as a subject of socio-cultural and linguistic analysis. The theory of cultural scripts is selected as an effective tool for describing linguistic semantics from the cognitive perspective. The purpose of the article is identifying the sequences of stages, episodes of the socio-cultural event "Kyrgyz Wedding" along with describing the frames of causally interconnected communicative steps. The script "Kyrgyz Wedding" is studied relying on V.I. Karasik’s approach, which presupposes its analysis through a protocol description, the constituents of which are preamble, chronotope, participants, values, communicative strategies of any ritual action. The advantage of studying consecutive stereotypical actions of any ethnos is that it involves not only the description of the speech acts of communicants, but also their behavioral norms. It enables to identify similarities and differences among different cultures.
