UNIVERSAL CONCEPTS AND TYPOLOGICAL SIMILARITIES IN LITERARY TEXTS

This paper explores the integration of universal human concepts and typological similarities within literary texts, highlighting their connection to various scientific disciplines such as cognitive science, psychology, linguistics, ethnology, and history. It emphasizes the anthropocentric paradigm and the concept of "worldview" in literary analysis, focusing on the role of concepts in reflecting national culture, values, and identity. The study defines key terms like "concept," "conceptual field," and "national worldview," demonstrating their relevance in understanding how literary texts conceptualize reality. It discusses how universal concepts such as space, time, life, and fate are understood differently across cultures, yet serve as foundational elements of human experience. The research also delves into the role of language and the author’s personal conceptualization in artistic texts, asserting that these works reflect not only reality but also the author’s subjective worldview. Through this analysis, the paper contributes to the understanding of cultural identity in literature, illustrating the interplay between universal and national concepts in shaping literary meaning.
