Features of the Use of Addressed Statements in Russian Orthodox Sermon

The features of the use of addressed utterances are considered from the point of view of the concept of asubjectivation, as opposed to the locuous activity of the subject of speech. Asubjectivation is defined as the presence in the semantics of the statement of the point of view of a non-assertive judgment subject, which is not perceived by the speaker’s sphere of consciousness and imposes restrictions on the meaning of the illocutionary act. The main method for identifying and describing asubjectivation in addressed utterances in a sermon is the identification of the scope and illocutionary force of the utterance. It has been proven that addressed utterances in a sermon, regardless of the speaker’s intentions, cover any communication participants, including those who turn out to be casual listeners. In addition, asubjectivation manifests itself as a requirement for the speaker to perform the illocutionary act “informative”, addressed to all participants in communication together, and at the same time — the speech act “message”, which regulates adequate interaction with the recipients of speech when using the language in the sermon. As a material, the authors considered statements built on the grammatical base of sentences with propositional (complex with additional clauses) and non-propositional meanings (impersonal with a due predicate). The relevance of the research is associated with the study of a new type of relationship in the semantic-syntactic structure of the sentence. The concept of asubjectivation allows us to formulate principles that regulate the features of referential relations in the structure of a sentence, taking into account the specifics of discourse.

Adsubjectification of Speaker in Construction of Statements with Meaning of Necessity in Discourse of Russian Orthodox Preaching

The article is devoted to the speaker’s adsubjectification in discourse, namely the mechanism of sentence contextualization, in which the meaning is obligatorily expressed, completely predetermined by the semantic context in the form of presuppositions that limit or exclude intentionality. The relevance of the study is due to the need to study non-intentional variants of grammatical content that contradict established ideas about the manifestations of subjectivity in language and speech. The novelty of the work lies in the establishment of non-intentional variants of the use of sentences with non-propositional meanings. The study was conducted on the material of the texts of the Russian Orthodox sermon. The use of two types of sentences with predicates of necessity is studied. An approach is used that takes into account the correlation between the semantic functions of predicatives and causators. Adsubjectivation as a predetermination of the causator by the semantic context was revealed for both varieties. It has been established that in statements with an explicit causator, the necessity of an action is always determined by situational presuppositions; in utterances with implicit causators — preparatory conditions for a speech act. At the same time, the impossibility of subjective motivation for the need for action in the discourse of preaching is noted, since this generates semantically unacceptable statements. It is shown that the mechanism of adsubjectification unambiguously determines the semantic limits of statements in a sermon, which is considered as evidence of the cognitive commonality of the implicit components of the content of statements plan and religious ideas.
