COMPOSITIONAL PRINCIPLES OF MUSICAL FORM IN FICTION

Abstract

The article discusses some general principles of creation of artistic information in classical literature and music. Some ways of extrapolation of musical compositional means onto the sphere of fiction are analyzed. We suggest that the main types of musical form are dynamic cognitive models, which reflect emotional and cognitive experience and thus stimulate corresponding emotional and cognitive processes in recipients’ minds. We have undertaken the research of sonata, fugue and variation forms in fiction based on the German prose.
