Description (srp)

The doctoral dissertation investigates potential theoretical-methodological correlations between cognitive psychology, cognitive linguistics, and narratology, intending to identify specificities of storywolds as mental representations for longer humorous literary narratives. The dissertation hinted at the possibilities of interdisciplinary cooperation between narratology and cognitive semantics, namely: in connection with the enrichment of the storyworld model through the conceptual integration theory, and in connection with humorous narratives; by pointing out the limitations of cognitive linguistic approaches to longer literary narratives as supra-syntactic structures; in terms of developing a conceptual integration model with regard to the specificities of literary narratives.In the first part, the relevant cognitive construals and principles are systematized, along with the first and the second generation of cognitive theories of humor (amodal/modal approaches). Humorous phenomenon is pertained to the humorous incongruity – a deviation from the prototypical (marked) usage of cognitive construals, along with another condition, the effect of surprise as a function of the semantic-pragmatic distance. It is proposed that humor represents a cognitive megaframe that enables the creation and comprehension of a stimulus as humorous. This is a cognitive category of scalar type, ontogenetically and phylogenetically formed, whereby the center of the category contains the ability to recognize the global contrariety, and different types of information marking to form incongruous constructions are related to the basic model through Wittgensteinian family resemblances.In the second, narratological, part, the thesis is postulated that every humorous literary narrative contains one/multiple central humorous (marked) metaphors, global because they encode most of the humorous effects and macro-dimensions of the storyworld. The storyworld qualities are extracted in relation to factors that determine composition, completion, and elaboration of the given metaphors. Incongruency of the central metaphor marks/encodes the storyworld through at least two opposing systems of narrative modalities and systems of narrative perspective.The relation to the cognitive megaframe for humor explains cases of repeated humorous stimulus, borderline humorous narratives, and texts that do not cause a humorous effect in contemporary readings. The hypostatized comic genre is understood as a hypostasis of the cognitive frame for humor and the preliminary list of the basic comic/humorous subgenres is proposed – comedy of character, comedy of intrigue, satire, and parody. All the given genres found their space in the application part of the research.
