Abstract

The article is devoted to the analysis of the figurative component of the concept of Canada on the basis of the English-Canadian poetic texts of the period of European colonization of Canada (up to 1867). The analyzed concept is defined as a multi-component complex formation, that consists of sensory-notional and figurative components. The set of conceptual metaphors that form the figurative component of the concept of Canada in the analyzed poetic texts was found. It was found that the scope of the target of the constructed conceptual metaphors has three conceptual sphere of source: “an inanimate object”, “a living being” and “an abstract notion”. As a result of the associative comprehension of the conceptual metaphors the viewing of the Canadian state of this period was clarified.
