Abstract
In development of Lotman’s idea about two communication channels in culture, the addressee’s reception of a message from the outside is considered as initiation of autocommunication of the addressee with his other self-inner speech. The author analyzes a role of fascination (in the sense of Yu. V. Knorozov) in the addressee’s assimilation of the information contained in the message with the help of inner speech and the emergence of fascination in the latter. As an example, here is an analysis of the Latin prayer Anima Christi.
