The article provides an overview of some recent works on cognitive poetics. Of particular interest are studies close to linguistic problematic of cognition in literary texts. A separate analysis tackles the case from the history of Russian thought about language and poetry – the theory of artistic (poetic) concepts by the Russian philosopher S. А. Askoldov. The paper also considers conceptions of Western-European linguists that emerged at the peak of the “cognitive turn” in the 1970s: theories of T. van Dijk and J. Lakoff – M. Turner, as well as criticism of these works by the Israeli literary critic R. Tsur; the approaches of P. Stockwell (author of the theory of deictic shifts), the Sheffield School of Text Worlds Analysis (J. Gavins, A. Gibbons), and M. Freeman (applications of cognitive linguistics to the study of literary text).
