TO THE FORMULATION OF THE PROBLEM OF “PATHOLOGY OF LINGUISTIC PERSONALITY”
Abstract. The article presents the key provisions of the original author’s theory of pathology of linguistic personality. The author examines the phenomenon of linguistic personality pathology in its integral connection with the process of communication. Pathology in this sense is characterized as a distorted, dependent vision of the world, arising as a result of violations of the need-motivational sphere of the individual. By projecting an irrational vision onto the generated texts and presenting them to others, the pathological linguistic personality destructively influences the categorical structures of the recipients’ consciousness. The author describes the structure of a pathological linguistic personality also classifies the signs of pathogenic text.
Keywords: pathology of linguistic personality, pathogenic text, psychological volume of text, consciousness, language absorption.
