With recourse to the main theoretical points on the anchoring of linguistic meaning in the acts of speech activity (Leontiev A.A.), mental construal (Langacker R.), processes of discourse-driven conceptualization and categorization (Kubryakova E.S.) and with reference to discourse oriented studies of stance (Biber D., Finegan E., Kärkkäinen E.), the conducted analysis focuses on a corpus of about 350 examples that represent narrative and dialogic discourse in English-language fiction. As evidenced by linguistic data, the choice of stance expressions with P- and S-subjects is motivated, respectively, by the distinctions that arise in discourse between actual and mentally represented types of reality, the contrast between reference-making and viewing as types of cognitive events and the distinction between event-schemas and mental experiences. These discursively relevant distinctions are further shown to be related to narrative and dialogic strategies that are used in literary texts for the expression of stance with the alternative stance-clauses.</abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru">В статье представлен анализ явления мыслительной дифференциации, которая может выражаться в английском языке при передаче пропозициональной установки путем разграничения конструкций с подлежащими, ассоциируемыми с двумя концептуальными архетипами: «партиципантом» (II), на который указывает местоимение I лица ( I am certain that ), и «абстрактным сеттингом» (С), выражаемым вводным местоимением it ( It is certain that ). При опоре на основные теоретические положения об обусловленности языкового значения актами речевой деятельности (А.А. Леонтьев), ментальной дифференциации (Р. Лэнекер), процессами дискурсивно мотивированной концептуализации и категоризации (Е.С. Кубрякова), а также с учетом имеющихся дискурсивно ориентированных исследований выражения установки (Д. Байбер, Э. Финеган, Е. Карккаинен) в работе анализируются примеры (общим объемом около 350), представляющие нарративный и диалогический дискурс в текстах англоязычной художественной литературы. Языковые данные свидетельствуют в пользу того, что выбор конструкции пропозициональной установки с подлежащими П либо С мотивируется, соответственно, различиями, возникающими в дискурсе, между фактической и мысленно репрезентированной реальностью, противопоставлением референции и наблюдения как типов когнитивных операций, а также разграничением событийных схем и мысленных представлений. В работе показано, что данные дискурсивно значимые различия непосредственно связаны с нарративными и диалогическими стратегиями, которые используются в художественных текстах для выражения пропозициональной установки в предложениях с различными типами подлежащих.</trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>mental construal</kwd><kwd>stance</kwd><kwd>discourse</kwd><kwd>speech</kwd><kwd>clausal subject</kwd><kwd>type of reality</kwd><kwd>cognitive operation</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>ментальная дифференциация</kwd><kwd>установка</kwd><kwd>дискурс</kwd><kwd>речь</kwd><kwd>подлежащее</kwd><kwd>тип реальности</kwd><kwd>когнитивная операция</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><mixed-citation>Кубрякова Е.С.
