A Phraseological Sign with the Reference to the Extent of Its Cultural Memory
The paper sets out to corroborate the idea that the phraseological image provides the storage and accumulation of various types of cultural information. The assumption that due to its image basis a phraseological sign possesses a huge amount of cultural information which is generated as a result of five principal modes of world-cognition (archetypal, mythological, religious, philosophical and scientific) is advanced and verified.
