Year of protection: 2014
Research topic: Official correspondence in Education and Science in Russia and France: theoretical and practical aspects
Annotation to the dissertation: In this dissertation, the author analyses the text of official correspondence relating to education and science in Russian and French in terms of its structure and linguistic content. On the basis of this analysis it is intended to develop the concept of a specialised French- Russian and Russian –French dictionary (in both printed and electronic format) of official terms relating to education and science. By examining the text of official letters it is possible to identify specific features of their design and to note the character of their linguistic and grammatical structure. It is also possible to group the most common French and Russian standard phrases used in official correspondence relating to education and science. On the basis of an analysis of current standard and specialist French and Russian dictionaries of official terms in both printed and electronic format, it has been possible to outline the principles whereby the vocabulary for a bilingual dictionary of official language can be selected, to produce a draft dictionary with examples of correspondence and to propose the methodology for designing a computerised version. The results of the research may be used in higher education to provide practical support for the improvement of French and Russian written language. It can also be used by students, teachers and administrative staff of educational and scientific institutions to assist them in the composition of official letters to their French colleagues who are taking part in university, school and scientific exchanges with Russia. The author’s conception can be used with good effect for further work in developing dictionaries by specialists in computer linguistics.
