- Abstract
The article justifies the method of comprehending the mental and psychological structure of personality through the analysis of a concept-sphere reflected in the language of art. Special focus is placed on the hypothesis according to which fictional plots (Orpheus, Prometheus, Odysseus, Faust) are viewed as reflections of fundamental human behavior patterns, which determine personal choices, establish a specific personal-eventive ontology and are reflected in the language. Particular attention is given to one of the advantages of Art, namely the ability of Art to translate experience transempirically. The article demonstrates the attractive nature and practice-behavioral orientation of an artistic image and assumes that it has a potential of emotional reasoning. Special emphasis is put on intonational nature of speech (B. Astafyev), as a specific mechanism of effecting a psycho-mental structure of personality. The authors refer to the concept of chronotope (A. Ukhtomsky, M. Bakhtin) to reveal the mechanisms of intellectual enrichment by which an individual is plunged into the world of fiction and encounters the Face of the Other, whereas emotional response is viewed as a quality criterion with regard to the work of art.
