CONCEPT «ENGAGEMENTRESPONSIBILITY» IN THE FRENCH LINGUOCULTURE

Abstract

The article examines the ways for verbalization of a universal concept “ ответственность (responsibility) - engagement” in the French language. The paper presents the comparative analysis of the correlating concepts of the Russian linguoculture. The authors outline the prospects for cross-cultural investigation of the key concepts in the French and Russian linguocultures within the framework of the opposition of the categories “activity” and “passivity” and taking into consideration the optimal existence conditions in the communicative space.
