THE ANALYSIS OF THE ARTISTIC PSYCHOLOGY OF THE CHARACTERS IN JULIAN BARNSNING'S "WORLD HISTORY IN 10½ CHAPTERS"

The article is dedicated to analyzing the artistic psychologism of the characters in Julian Barnes' book A History of the World in 10½ Chapters. The author examines Barnes' unique narrative structure and use of polyphony to reveal the inner worlds of the characters and their emotional experiences. The focus is on the psychological motivations of the characters, their perception of historical and personal events, and the author's approach to interpreting moral and philosophical issues through the lens of human experience. Special attention is given to the relationship between the fragmentation of the text and the multifaceted nature of perspectives, which allows for a deeper understanding of the subtleties of human psychology and the complexity of perceiving the world.
