The presented work examines the emerging field of neurolinguistics – neuropoetics, the subject of which is the study of the mechanisms of perception, interpretation and generation of poetic text involving various parts of the brain. Special attention is paid to the functional specialization of the hemisphere: the right hemisphere is associated with creative thinking, understanding metaphors, emotional expressions and holistic perception, while the left hemisphere is associated with logical thinking and processing verbal information. Experimental data are presented that prove the activation of emotional and sensory areas of the brain when perceiving poetry, in particular, the medial prefrontal cortex, amygdala, insula, as well as Broca’s and Wernicke’s zones. The features of oculomotor activity when reading a poetic text are considered: fixations, saccades, the influence of inversions and enjambments. The importance of intonation as a means of conveying poetic information is emphasized. Special attention is paid to artistic perception as an active spiritual process, including the choice of motive, stylization and realization of the author’s idea through the word. The neural mechanisms of speech sound recognition, the organization of neural modules, and the role of intention neurons in the formation of expressive speech are also described. It is pointed out that the poetic text activates not only cognitive, but also aesthetic, sensory aspects of perception. Thus, neuropoetics is an interdisciplinary field that combines data from neurophysiology, psycholinguistics, and literary studies, and reveals a complex multilevel process of poetic creativity and perception. Keywords: neuropoetics, artistic perception, imaginative thinking, emotional expression, neural mechanisms, neurolinguistics.
