METHOD OF ACTUALISM IN LABOUS ON HISTORY OF UKRAINIAN LINGUISTICS

Abstract

The structure of linguistic method is considered in the article. The specific of actualism is shown as a method of works on linguistic historiography in comparison with a linguistic comparatively-historical method. In detail studied ontological, operational and teleological components of method of actualism. Drawn conclusion about expediency of the use of method of actualism in labours on history of Ukrainian linguistics. Within the limits of method of actualism objects that are article of actual activity and perception can be studied by comparing of them to the similar objects that get in the circle of perception and activity of subject. As cognition here cannot come true by the practical cooperating with present objects, then it takes place through logical operations, with that information a researcher has that in the order. Unlike empiric methods that study present objects and phenomena, for an actualism there are characteristic mostly elements of theoretical cognition. The method of actualism using contemporary knowledge enables to oversee the development of the object in the past as well as to predict the future. From the modernity standpoint it is easier to realize the historical past. Modern, developed state of the research subject is also easier to learn than its state in the past. Therefore actualism is an integral part of scientific cognition. The approach of actualism to the investigation of the reality does no mean a pure logical procedure of transferring the knowledge from one historical epoch to another. In this situation it is necessary to say about the researching of the same object in time boundaries, the analysis of a stable system, its formation and predicting some tendencies of future development. The method of actualism is used in the vast range of scientific research. Within the works of the linguistic historiography the term of the method of actualism was first applied by V. A. Glushchenko. Describing the method of actualism V. A. Glushchenko is based on the concept of the linguistic method as a complicated logical unit (heterogeneous by its core). The major operating element of method of actualism is linguistic reconstruction. The specific of this procedure consists in that linguist’s aim is reconstruction the process of cognition of the language phenomena. Thus, realizing bases of actualism cognition, it is necessary to pay attention to not only fellow-feeling of modern linguists and their predecessors but also on certain differences. In labours on history of Ukrainian linguistic a general estimate given depending on that the new was brought linguists in science as compared with the predecessors and what value labours had them for the time, but not from the point of view of modern level of knowledge.
