CONVERSATION EMPTINESS AS THE SIGN OF PSEUDOCOMMUNICATION
The article considers the communication concept and the main aspects and categories it concerns. The article considers the conversation subject and conversation emptiness concepts. The conversation subject is the important component of the communication sphere and the very situation that motivates an individual to speak. The conversation subject is the necessary condition for the communication function realization and accordingly the communicant attention centre. The communication successfulness depends on the conversation subject understanding. The author shows that pointless conversation isn`t aimed on the specific theme and solving of certain unspeaking problem of communicants. Pointless communication is made as a process but not a result therefore it is uneffective, aimless, unperspective. Conversation emptiness destroys normal communication and makes it pointless and purposeless. Conversation emptiness is considered as one of the signs of pseudocommunication. The author analyses instances of conversation emptiness. Different factors that cause communication failure are considered (at the example of S. Beckett’s plays). The notion of pseudocommunication is determined.
