Abstract
The interaction of philosophy and literature is clarified in the relationship between literature and music. As distinct genres of art, literature and music have much in common when we consider them in the theoretical context of overcoming the traditional dichotomy of mind and body. The phenomenon of so-called linguistic iconography illustrates the movement of literature beyond the substantial split of man into mind and body. Music also avoids this dichotomy, denying the difference between subject and form. Then the form does not symbolize or express something, but represents a musical meaning. In both cases, literature and music produce embodied meanings, that is, those that lie in reality itself. Semantic poverty and fixation on real linguistic iconography and music enable the process of embodiment of meanings. Perception of the latter involves the use of not only mental but also bodily abilities of man in their cognitive integrity.
