| Research Abstract |
This research is a new step in a series of theoretical studies of narrative fiction by the method of genre comparison. In this study it was hypothetically defined, that the cognitive processes of fictional character are determined by three basic elements: intuition of expression, comprehension of itinerary and revelation of existence. Under this hypothesis main narrative genres were comparatively analysed, focusing the issue, how the perceptual constraints caused by the media are compensated by narrator's depiction.
