PECULIARITIES OF REPRESENTATION OF BINARY OPPOSITION "FRIEND/FOE" IN DIFFERENT SPACES OF J. ALDRIDGE'S NOVEL "DIPLOMAT"

Abstract

The article deals with verbal and non-verbal ways of representing the binary opposition "us/them" in different situations and different spaces (Moscow-Kurdistan-London) of J. Aldridge's novel "The Diplomat". The conceptual paradigm is substantiated, as a result of which the representation of concepts is analyzed at different levels of the text: plot-compositional and figurative. Key words-representatives were defined for the conceptual component of the conceptual opposition. It is noted that in the conceptual opposition there is a powerful subjective charge of the relationship of the characters and the author's modality.
