Linguocultural Type “Lady” (by the Material of J. Austen’s “Pride and Prejudice”)

Abstract

The article examines the content of the notion “linguocultural type” and methods for its modeling. The study aims to ascertain notional, figurative and value features of the “lady” type basing on J. Austen’s novel “Pride and Prejudice”. The research is novel in that it is the first to use this work of classical English literature as a source for studying the type. It was found that the modeled “lady” type is in fact important to the British linguoculture since its notional, figurative and value aspects are reflected in J. Austen’s piece of work.
