Abstract
The purpose of the article is to identify and describe the cognitive-pragmatic characteristics of representation of a character’s linguistic consciousness in a postmodernist literary text. Scientific novelty of the study lies in providing rationale for the defining role of intertextuality in representation of a character’s linguistic consciousness and in literary reality transformation. As a result, it is found that in S. Sokolov’s novel “A School for Fools”, one of the most representative texts in terms of linguistic consciousness objectification, the author in the postmodernity literary text is the same fragment of literary reality as a character, while a character’s linguistic consciousness functions as a linguo-cognitive way of representing the individual author’s worldview.
