On some means of cultural-philosophical interpretation of literary and artistic works: semantic aspect

The author, in the process of studying scientific literature on the problems of interpreting literary and artistic works, identified a number of methods that contribute to the establishment and disclosure of the cultural and philosophical meanings of this kind of works. As such, the article considers the following: the sum of humanitarian studies of literary and artistic work, its sphere of concepts and the writer's biography. Each of the above means contributes to the disclosure of the cultural and philosophical meanings of the work. The sum of humanitarian studies allows us to review the accumulated knowledge in science about the artwork in question and the meanings identified by other interpreters. The sphere of concepts reflects the mental-essential units that are enclosed in the text and on which it is structured. Finally, a writer's biography allows us to establish how events in the personal and creative life, the writer's experiences influenced the meanings and ideas contained in the work of art.
