REPRESENTATION OF THE CONCEPT «CITY» AND LEITMOTIFS OF THE NOVEL BY CARLOS RUIZ ZAFON «THE ANGEL’S GAME»

Abstract

In the course of the study, the author concludes that the term «concept» is an interdisciplinary one, and the notion of the literary concept has not been developed at the appropriate level, especially when compared to the philosophical or psychological component of this phenomenon. We conclude that the leitmotifs of the novel «The Angle’s Gamel» is the presence of mystery, a place of literature in people's lives, the quality of the literature, etc. The concept of «city» in the novel is formed with the help of the lexemes, such as «secret», «cathedral», «street», «market», «cemetery», «library», etc.
