Abstract:
The article employs methods and terminology of cognitive linguistics to analyze the cultural binary opposition ‘self-the other’ the way it is manifested in the novel ‘Finding Audrey’ by S. Kinsella. The chosen methodology serves to reveal that in the novel the cultural opposition ‘self-the other’ can be regarded as a cultural scheme represented by cultural models ‘school bullying’ and ‘teenagers vs parents’.
