Article type
Annotation This article considers the research of categories of the space and time continuum in cognitive linguistics as the basic concepts of the national language world picture and as a category of a literary chronotope; we propose to combine these approaches to the study of the space-time continuum within the framework of a separate literary work based on the cognitive-matrix model of the space-time continuum, reflecting the cognitive structure of the novel and defining its narrative development. The cognitive-matrix model brings together knowledge about various aspects of a phenomenon into the system of different cognitive contexts represented by its components integratively within the frames of the complicated concept which may differ with various levels of complexity and their content may vary from common to expert. According to the given approach, the cognitive-matrix model of the space-time continuum has developed the components which determine the main plot in S. Rushdie’s novel Midnight’s children. The cognitive-matrix model allows us to give a cognitive perception of a formal-substantial category of the chronotope in the form of the spacetime continuum concept as an organizational centre of the whole cognitive structure of the novel, determining its genre-type variety.
Key words space, time, space-time continuum, cognitive linguistics, concept, chronotope, cognitive-matrix model, language picture of the world
