Abstract
This article presents the results of the research on determining the status roles of participants leading discursive practices in contemporary Russian-language religious media discourse in Kazakhstan. In order to achieve the goal of the study, which is defined as a description of the characteristic features that allow us to identify the status roles manifested in the religious Russian-language media discourse of Kazakhstan, a number of important tasks are solved. Among them, a special place is occupied by the application of the dialingual method of discourse analysis, which allowed us to develop an algorithm for analyzing a discursive situation. Along with this, the characteristics of religious media discourse as a type of institutional discourse are described on the example of the world religion «Islam». It is noted that the subject matter of the analyzed materials reflects the religious situation in society. Based on this, a constant interest in conducting religious discursive practices is traced. Thus, the religious theme of communication is topical and increasingly becomes a subject of discussion in society. The conclusion is made about the presence in the personological space of the blogosphere of at least six types of linguistic personality of the author, systematically interconnected with the realized communicative intentions. Prospects for the development of the selected topic are presented in a wider coverage of various practices of Russian-language religious discourse of Kazakhstan by attracting new methods of analyzing discursive practices within the framework of religious media discourse of Kazakhstan. Keywords: religious discourse, discursive personality, blogosphere, transformation, peripheral zone of discourse, nuclear zone of discourse, linguopersonology, discursive practices.
