Abstract

The representatives of modern literary theory stressed a number of concepts of the area of presumptions of literary notions: Kant's apriori, the "hermeneutic prejudice", Saussure's langue, etc. Russian theoreticians suggested several pairs of concepts on this basis: word as a vehicle of meaning - word as a phonetic reality, word in announcement - word in a verse; story - plot, etc.

In the literary development stressed they the concept of a "literary life" (habitation), in which is prefigured Husserl's concept of "Lebenswelt".
