Abstract
The concept as information structure has been theoretically substantiated in the article, the scientists’ points of views concerning this issue have been analyzed, and the vocabulary for the definition of time concepts has been distinguished. On the basis of the analysis, general tendencies and individual-author parameters of stylistic and structural-semantic modifications of words - carriers of time semantics, features of their context content have been traced. The mechanism of changes in the semantic structure of these words as well as the individual features of the author have been determined. It is generalized that the concept is the result of the knowledge of the surrounding world, a holistic ideal formation, reflecting centuries of experience and the specifics of the national culture. Concepts act as unique cultural codes of a certain nation, which are transmitted from generation to generation and are absorbed with the language. The research gives grounds for asserting that the linguistic representation of time is based on the traditional body of temporal tokens. The recorded metaphors testify to both general, indicative for the national linguistic tradition, means of the writing (for example, conceptual metaphorical models "time – a person", time – nature") and the search for innovative ways of verbalization and expressive evaluation of time in the language aesthetic signs of national culture.
