Language, Speech and Image in Analysing Artistic Forms

The article deals with such phenomena as "Language", "Speech" and "Image" in the context of the hermeneutic interpretation and understanding of a literary text and a wider notion of the form this text is incorporated in. The author introduces the terms "image-opus" and "speech-opus" to describe the relationship between the image and speech on the one hand, and the perceiving mind on the other, and proves the importance of developing a theoretical model (reconstruction) of a work of art as a collaboration of the author and interpreter which is vital for the functioning of a speech-opus. In view of making a theoretical model as an adequate and vivid reconstruction of the literary text such notions as "esthetic feeling", "event" and "dialogism" are introduced.
