Cognitive modelling of translation space in fiction: semantic correlations identification

The article deals with the theoretical grounds of cognitive modelling in the conceptual analysis of the source and target texts in fiction translation. It presents the result of the verbal representation analysis of the concept SOLETUDE / SOLEDAD in the narrative of the Latin American author Gabriel Garcia Marques. The authors consider the strategy of cognitive discourse analysis of the concept through the identification of the lexemes' semantic correlations that form the substance of the fiction text both in the source and target texts and make the comparative analysis of the correlations. The research substantiates the significance of language representations of the fiction conceptual space.
