| Popis | This paper introduced interdisciplinary concept of linguo-religious complexes of human societies. The idea came from the research of linguistic, religious and historical issues related to tributary relations in Inner Asia and beyond. The first part of the talk explained contribution of this concept for advanced research of linguistic and ethno-religious contacts. The second part have distinguished specific, but interrelated functions of language and religion with regulative impacts on individual and social level. Regarding development of human populations, a special attention was dedicated to main reasons why particular language or religion (or both) can be replaced. Analyses of historical examples of religious changes allowed description of basic rules in these processes. Additional comments were focused on environmental factors contributing to the emergence of diversity and exchanges among particular population units. The final remarks have outlined further prospect of this approach in the running projects and characterized general value of this interdisciplinary approach for Oriental studies. |
