ELECTRONIC SPACE IN THE SYSTEM OF THE CONCEPTUAL FIELD “SPACE”

Abstract

The temporal society is experiencing an era of adapting man to a new environment called “electronic space”. The sci- entific, technical and informational spheres of human activity are regarded as leading permanent producers of new lexemes and concepts in modern society. The electronic space development is considered as the main factor in linguistic changes. The influence of the extralingual factor on the change of the conceptual field “space” system has been researched. Generalized information on how in the process of evolution and human activity the category of space was structured and split into smaller constituents (environments) is given. The article provides a structured system of space category in which the place of the environment “electronic space” is determined. Sounds, signs, letters, texts are regarded as the “non-electronic information environment” in contrast to “electronic space”. The article contains the definition of the “ELECTRONIC SPACE” concept. Also the article establishes lexical changes caused by the emergence of electronic space. By the method of continuous selection from the Internet discourse, we have obtained lexemes that denote parts of the electronic space, operations with it and indicate its characteristics and are part of the micro-cocncept “E-SPACE” system. In the article they are divided into three groups on the base of novelty. We define electronic space as not limited and as such that will generate new coordinate points and new values for existing tokens. Two main factors that caused the last changes in the conceptual field “space” are the creation of a new environment “e-space” and the separation of the “outernet” and “Internet” environments from the “e-space”. As a result, in the form of a scheme, a system of conceptual field “space” is presented, taking into account the changes after incorporating of the micro-concept “E-SPACE” into it.
