Abstract
The research is focused on studying the manifestation of anthropocentrism in Old English paroemias whose substantive components can be correlated with the anthropic, somatic, spiritual, social, natural, and zoomorphic codes of culture. Anthropocentrism tends to directly display itself through the anthropic and somatic codes. An indirect expression of anthropocentrism, that is anthropomorphism, is largely effected by virtue of personification, which involves lexical units correlating with the natural, zoomorphic and material codes of culture.
