Milena Podolsak is a PhD candidate in Scandinavian languages and lecturer in Swedish as a foreign language at Stockholm University's Department of Swedish Language and Multilingualism. She is actively engaged in research on lexical semantics with particular focus on metaphor and metonymy in political discourse. Her research interests center on lexical semantics, metaphor analysis, and metonymy within political discourse. She examines how motion and journey metaphors function in political rhetoric, with particular attention to conceptual integration and metaphorical meaning construction. Her work bridges cognitive linguistics with political communication analysis, exploring how language shapes political messaging and public perception. Her research output primarily focuses on conceptual metaphors in Swedish political speeches, demonstrating trends in how political actors use spatial metaphors to frame policy discussions and national direction.

Prof. PhD Anastasia Nicheva Petrova is a distinguished Professor in the Department of General Linguistics and Old Bulgarian Studies at the Faculty of Modern Languages, University of Veliko Tarnovo ("St. Cyril and St. Methodius" University). With an extensive publication record spanning over three decades, she has established herself as a leading expert in Balkan linguistics, phraseology, and linguistic-cultural studies. Her academic career demonstrates deep engagement with the complex linguistic landscape of the Balkan region, examining both historical and contemporary aspects of language contact and convergence. Prof. Petrova's research interests span multiple dimensions of linguistic inquiry, with particular emphasis on the Balkan linguistic union, phraseology, and the intersection of language with culture and cognition. Her work explores how linguistic structures reflect cultural models, examining everything from semantic fields to the multimodal nature of perception and expression. She has made significant contributions to understanding how Slavic lexical elements have been incorporated into other Balkan languages, the phonetic motivation behind phraseological units, and the mythological programming of everyday language. Her research bridges theoretical linguistics with cultural anthropology, creating a comprehensive framework for understanding the Balkan linguistic space as both a historical phenomenon and a living, evolving system. The analysis of Prof. Petrova's 15 most recent publications (2019-2025) reveals a consistent focus on the intricate relationships between language, culture, and cognition in the Balkan context. Her work demonstrates a sophisticated methodological approach that combines comparative analysis with cultural interpretation. A notable trend is her increasing attention to multimodal aspects of language, examining how perception, emotion, and cultural concepts are linguistically encoded. Her research shows a clear evolution from traditional comparative linguistics toward more integrated approaches that incorporate cognitive science, anthropology, and cultural studies. Prof. Petrova has been actively involved in numerous research projects that strengthen international academic collaboration. She has participated in projects focused on Balkan linguistic and cultural symbiosis, digital humanities, and the development of academic networks across Southeastern Europe. Her work with international teams from universities in Nis, Warsaw, and Craiova demonstrates her commitment to building sustainable academic partnerships that transcend national boundaries.

Her research bridges theoretical linguistic frameworks with practical applications in language teaching, particularly for Bulgarian as a foreign language. Analysis of her publication trends reveals consistent focus on conceptual domains like cleverness/intellect, success/failure, hospitality, and collective vs. individual identity in Bulgarian culture. Her work demonstrates sophisticated integration of cognitive linguistic approaches with empirical research on language use, often employing contrastive analysis (particularly Bulgarian-English comparisons) and discourse analysis. A significant portion of her research addresses the challenges of teaching Bulgarian language and culture to non-native speakers, including frameworks for incorporating sociocultural competence into language curricula. Dr. Dimitrova actively participates in research projects including 'Integration of Students and Doctoral Students into Research Initiatives and Practices of the Faculty of Philology at VTU' (2025), 'Oral Communication in the Digital Age – Problems and Perspectives' (2023), and 'Oral Communication – Current Problems and Scientific Solutions' (2020).
