Text and subtext: psychological interpretation of the images of the heroes of H.K. Andersen's fairy tales

Based on the author's principle of emotionocentric-- ity, the article analyzes, in the context of the analy-- sis of European fairy tales, in particular the texts of H.C. Andersen's fairy tales, the interaction of a literary text and its subtexts. The process of "creat-- ing" psychological "reflections" of the images of the characters of the works is shown as a result of the im-- mersion of the textual basis into the emotional space of the personality, in the logic of subjective personal experience of experiencing and eventful living. In es-- sence, it is a process of emotional reinterpretation of the text, the process of forming a new meaningful textual counterstructure (a construct opposite to the generally accepted perception of the hero).
