Abstract
The course “Emotions and Colour in linguacultures” is connected with the study of emotions conveyed by colour. The "world of colour" is closely connected with the world of emotional reactions. The research seminar is aimed to familiarize students with the definition “linguaculture” itself, to consider emotions as a linguistic object, peculiarities of colour and expressing emotions via colour terms in various aspects: linguistics, psychology in different linguacultures. As a part of a research seminar, it will be discussed how colour naming is being built into the mechanism of emotionality; what can determine the choice of colour naming in conveying positive/positively directed and negative/negatively directed emotions; how writers and publicists use a rich range of possibilities of colour vocabulary in their works.
