Snegireva T. V.
Meaning and symbol in projective pictures
(resume)

Following F. E. Vasilyuk, the author considers the starting point for analysis of the structure of symbols to be the psycho-semiotic model of consciousness image. A projective picture «My family» symvolics was used as experimental data. The specificity of unconscious display of every basic notion in image theoretic model — object content, sign, meaning and personal sense — is discussed. The author places special emphasis on the sense component: it manifests itself spontaneuosly through object images and meanings of the picture. In addition, the symbolic image in its endless sense perspective possesses not only individual but timeless supra-individual sense, which can be understood as a manifestation of spiritual reality.
