The work presents the foundations of cognitive interpretation of the category of artistry with regard to its text realization by means of a natural language. The purpose is to formulate the theoretic principles of distinction between narration and lyric as two versions of cognitive modeling of the reality. The theoretical basis of the study is elaborated by the author “philosophy of literary word” and interdisciplinary, general humanitarian narration theory on the basis of communicative and cognitive-oriented approach. The methodology of the study is the cognitive-discursive analysis of a text. The study shows that verbal way of embodiment of the category of artistry reflects a special type of consciousness oriented towards linguo-creative and heuristic modeling of otherness which is transcendent in relation to the speaker’s reality, to that we call “simply life” which involves to two additionally distributed modes of existence – being in event and being in experience. In accordance with this, two ways of verbal cognitive modeling of aesthetic kind: (1) the narration cognitive model; (2) the lyric cognitive model. Narration is based on the model of objectification, i.e. unfolding in temporal sequence of something that happens out of subject’s zone, when so-called “outside world” is the focus; lyric realizes the model of registration of reactive non-reflected intentional experience of things which a subject feels himself, when inner world is the focus. The author distinguished consistently narration1 and lyric1 as phenomena of human everyday existence and, accordingly, narration2 and lyric2 as turning natural things into semiotic ones, nature into culture due to aesthetic transformation. Both versions of cognitive modeling of the reality are conditioned by some peculiarities of a natural language. Aesthetic transformation of “simply life” in its two versions is realized by a natural language by the use of universal mechanisms of a conceptual (cognitive) metaphor of pictorial or expressive types. In this, lyric is a kind of dominance of modus over dictum, and narration is, vice-versa, a kind of prevalence of dictum over modus. Findings are that there is not any special “aesthetic language” – we deal with the most ordinary language, simply in especial conditions of its functioning, in especial mode of communication and with especial intentionality, simply used in especial function of cognitive modeling of probabilistic states of the world and / or mind
