DENOTATIONS OF THE CONCEPT OF “HOMELAND” IN WESTERN BRITISH AND AMERICAN CULTURAL AND LINGUISTIC CONTEXTS

The concept of ‘vatan-homeland’ constitutes the core elements of national identity with its connotations in the native language. In this article we aim to identify and describe different connotations of the concept of ‘vatan-homeland’ in the contexts of British - American culture and language. The investigation and comparison in the context of Turkic languages – Kazakh and Turkish, is intended to be the subject of other articles, which is believed to give the reader further insights into the contribution of national-local values of the concept of ‘vatan-homeland’ and its denotations to the mentality of generations
