Subjective perception of time as a temporal fictional image
Abstract
The article is concerned with subjective perception of time, also
known as psychological time, in the capacity of a textual category and
a fictional image via comparative qualitative research methods. As the
basis for this hypothesis in its turn we refer to the results of similar
investigations in literary studies, psychology and text linguistics. As a
result, words describing real fictional time and space quite often
appear in descriptions of psychological time. In conclusion, the
category of fictional time plays a very important role in the modeling
of the subjective perception of time by characters.
