CATHARSIS AS ESTHETIC COMPONENT OF CONCEPT IN IMAGINATIVE LITERATURE
The article deals with the aesthetic component of a concept in imaginative literature. Conceptualization of an imaginary text is performed with the help of special esthetic means which reflect both cultural norms and trends of their time and place and an individual author’s approach to rendering of an esthetic ideal. Due to this esthetic component a work of art acquires on the one hand features, characteristic for the idiostyle of this or that writer, and on the other reflects the peculiarities of different artistic trends and styles. Catharsis is looked upon as an emotional flash, spiritual purification of a work of art’s addressee, as a perlocutionary effect of a successful comb ination of form and substance in a work of art, or in other words, of two components of a concept: a semantic and esthetic ones.
Keywords: fiction, concept, emotiveness, esthetic information, catharsis, perlocutionary effect
