The main attention is paid to the cognitive principles of distributing information in the text, cognitive basis of stylistic devices, also great attention is paid to the theory of cognitive metaphor, mental spaces and conceptual integration. In the article it is also proved that there are all grounds to examine cognitive stylistics as one of the significant trends of cognitive linguistics as well as cognitive semantics and cognitive grammar.
