Abstract

In Russian, the lexemes denoting “notion” and “understanding” are etymological cognates, and are used by Belyj in such a way that the text often requires additional interpretation. The article attempts to classify the contexts in which these lexemes are used in Belyiʼs Istoriia stanovleniia samosoznaiushchei dushi (ISSD). It explores a number of contrasts concerning the differences between, on the one hand, the usage in Russian before Belyi, during the 18th and 19th centuries and, on the other, in Belyiʼs work.
