The article describes the cognitive mechanisms for reconstructing a culturally and socially relevant model of reality categorization, as well as the features which help to linguistically represent the cognitive space model in the artistic picture of the world of the Middle Ages based on the material of knightly novels and poems of the 12–14th centuries. The choice of works of medieval literature as sources is due to the fact that the 12–14th centuries are a key period in the history of Europe, the era of the birth and flourishing of new cultural traditions and trends. The cognitive approach proposed in the article to the analysis and interpretation of linguistic facts makes it possible to identify and describe cognitive models and the underlying structures of representations and knowledge about space, to reveal the relationship and correlations of the structures of this knowledge and the objectifying linguistic phenomena. The data obtained indicate that the cognitive model of space is a complex of ideological coordinates and values recorded in a verbal text in the form of a specially organized system of knowledge and ideas about the world — a universal sign complex, represented in key / world-modeling categories. This issue opens up prospects for further research into the role of cognitive modeling, into describing the means and methods of conceptualizing and categorizing knowledge on diachronic snapshots of different chronological references.

Keywords: linguocognitive model, space, conceptualization and categorization of knowledge
