The article examines the complicated issue of the perception and understanding of a literary text. The research has the poetic word in its core which demonstrates an explicit tendency to expand its semantic and stylistic opportunities in the context of the work taking on new emotive-expressive charge. The polyphonic realization of the word obtains a decisive importance in terms of the non-verbality of the literary text taking it beyond the level of the nominative function of the word and participating in the formation of the system of the aesthetic values of the piece of work.
