The article discusses the issue of linguistic creativity in two types of discourse – literary and academic, as well as the linguistic mechanisms of word-making in artistic (experimental) literature in comparison with term- creation in scientific (philological) texts. The analysis distinguishes features that differentiate the scientific-academic and literary-artistic discourse, and those features that assimilate them. The perspective of analysis is the mechanisms of generating new linguistic units or new meanings of existing linguistic units in artistic neologization and terminological creativity. The study considers “strong” expressemes, or heuristemes (in the texts of V. Khlebnikov) in their comparison with concepts and terms in scientific discourse (in the texts of R. Jakobson) from the standpoint of linguistic creativity. Heuristeme as a unit of artistic language turns out to be a bridge between artistic and scientific mentality, between artistic imagery and scientific terminology, between linguistic aes- thetics and linguistic heuristics.
