| "Concept" is a special phenomenon of human thoughts existing in the process of human recognition to the world. Researches on "concept" were first started in the field of philosophy, and then gradually expanded to other disciplines. Researches on "concept" in the field of Russian language and culture began in the1980s. The relationship between language and culture is the main object of study in cultural linguistics. Therefore,"concept" in the field of cultural linguistics acts as a bridge which helps us get a better understanding about the relationship between language and culture. Through a careful analysis on concept in this field, we can, on one hand, understand the manifestations of national culture in language, and on the other hand, we can also gain recognition about the impact of national culture on language development.The concept of "дopora",with a rich ethnic and cultural significance, is very common in daily life and frequently used by Russian people. That is why this concept is chosen as the object of this study.The thesis is divided into five parts:Part I:Introduction.
