Abstract:
The article discusses the specifics of the interaction of psychoanalysis and literary studies. It is proved that literary studies actively use fundamental psychoanalytic methods and techniques in decoding the mental unconscious of characters in literary works. Literary terms proposed for implementation and use – a literary work of psychoanalytic direction, a literary work with psychoanalysis elements, a literary work with the psychoanalytic dominant or psychoanalytic constructs certifying the integration of psychoanalysis theory into literary studies. According to the interaction of psychoanalysis and literary studies, the terms are developed by the author‟s team and are proposed for theoretical testing. The use of certain aspects of psychoanalytic theory contributes to the literary interpretation of unconscious processes in the author‟s psyche and its characters, marked by various pathologies, deviations, neuroses, fears, etc. The article emphasizes that interpreting literary texts in the psychoanalytic aspect actualizes the method of free associations, close to the specific literary technique of the consciousness streamand the specifics of interpretations of the dreaming discourse.
