Abstract. The purpose of the article is to define and describe the parameters of formation of the linguo-cognitive category of aggression in the Russian language. The variety of forms of manifestation of verbal aggression, its great influencing potential dictate the need to describe the linguo-cognitive parameters that underlie it. The article formulates the thesis that aggression is a linguo-cognitive category that includes five parameters: purposefulness, affectivity, persuasiveness, anti-axiologiness and national-cultural interaction. The set of these parameters is united in the human consciousness in the “linguo-cognitive unit” of aggression,
expressed by various linguistic means. It is substantiated that purposefulness as a linguo-cognitive parameter of aggression consists in causing harm to an object (a specific person, a mass addressee, the addresser himself). Affectivity reflects a negative emotional state of the subject expressing aggression, Persuasiveness results in direct negative impact on the addressee, manipulation of his cognitive attitudes. The national-cultural interaction reflects the peculiarities of the Russian linguistic mentality in the expression of aggression; anti-axiology distorts the values of the addressee or negatively affects them through verbal aggression. The present study employed the general scientific inductive-deductive method and the method of component analysis. The practical significance of this research is determined by the possibility of applying the results in the educational process in tertiary school.

 

Keywords: addressee, verbal aggression, categorization, cognitive linguistics, causing harm, linguistic means.
