The study discusses the material, the- matic and formal alogisms and paradoxes, and it opposes them against the for- mula of hypallage<\/em> as a semantic operation ensuring to overcome fantasy, dream and fiction as well as specifically to facilitate achieving the fantastic universe. This operation is aimed at the motivation of the human intellect and it reaches its goal in the heuristic recognition. The statements of the study are supported by the interpretation of dostoevsky\u2019s The Dream of a Ridiculous Man<\/em>, as well as by the analysis of the works of Gogol, Turgenev, Poe, Voltaire, Victor Hugo and Nietzsche, and also by the criticism of the current standing of the theory of the fantastic.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Keywords:<\/strong> dream, fantastic, fiction, enthymema, grotesque, hypallage, heuresis, semantics of metaphor, Fjodor dostoevsky, sigmund Freud, Friedrich Nietzsche, igor smirnov, vladimir solovjov, Tzvetan Todorov<\/p>\n
