Key words: anthropocentrism, discourse, human-centered approach, communication, worldview, cognition, pragmatics, culture.Abstract
Abstract.This article explores the concept of discourse within the framework of
anthropocentrism and analyzes the role of the human factor in language and
communication. The study explains how discourse reflects human thinking, cultural
values, worldview, and communicative intentions. Special attention is given to the
anthropocentric approach in modern linguistics, where language is studied in close
relation to human cognition and social interaction. The article also discusses the
connection between discourse, context, and culture, emphasizing that every type of
discourse carries traces of human perception and experience. Ultimately, the paper
highlights the importance of discourse analysis in understanding the relationship
between language, thought, and society from an anthropocentric perspective.
