3. A literary text is a complex organization system. On the one hand, this is a private system of means of the national language, on the other hand, a literary text has its own code system, which the addressee (reader) must decipher in order to understand the text.

4. One of the properties of a literary text is its polysemanticity, i.e. different interpretation of the meaning of the work by the reader, depending on his erudition, personal tastes and preferences, on the era in which the reader gets acquainted with the text, etc.
5. In a literary text everything tends to become motivated from the side of meaning. Everything here is full of inner meaning and language means itself, regardless of what things it serves as a sign.
6. All elements of the text are interconnected, and adjacent units of the literary text show semantic similarity (isomorphism).

7. Polyfunctionality is also inherent in the literary text. Several functions can be combined in it: aesthetic and philosophical (the tragedy of IV Goethe "Faust"), aesthetic and historical (the epic novel by Leo Tolstoy "War and Peace"), etc.
8. A fiction text is associated with other texts, refers to them or absorbs their elements.
9. A fictional text always contains not only direct, but also implicit information.
10. A specific feature of a literary text as a unit of aesthetic communication is anthropocentricity, that is, cognition and reflection of the world in a work of fiction is primarily aimed at cognizing a person, and all depicted artistic events are a means of comprehensive display of a person. The semantic centers of the anthropocentric structure of a work of art are the categories "author - character - reader".
So, a literary text is a private aesthetic system of linguistic means, characterized by a high degree of integrity and structuredness. It is unique, unrepeatable and at the same time uses typed construction techniques. It is an aesthetic object that is perceived in time and has a linear extension.
