The study was designed to investigate imagery strategies used by blind and sighted individuals and their ability to operate spatial representations. Performance accuracy in the imagery tasks was confirmed to be similar in the blind individuals with no visual memories and in the sighted subjects. On the other hand, the findings showed differences in preferred imagery strategies. The sighted, more often than the blind subjects, used the strategy of visualizing spatial matrices. The blind subjects applied a tapping strategy more often than the sighted ones. Additional analysis focused on the function of working memory systems in processing spatial stimuli by the blind and sighted subjects.

The main line of the paper is putting together several Nabokov's ways of grasping visual images with the help of words, i.e., grasping them within a text. One of Nabokov's ideas is to write analogically to the work of a painter. A textual description seems to him very verbose and tedious. The other model of his creative work imitates optical illusions. Textual mimicries are produced by various anagrams and wordplays. This imitation (a specific form of mimesis) follows from (is related to) Nabokov's literary understanding of the transparency which in fact is not transparent. According to him, we cannot see the essentially unknowable ground of things (and of images, persons, etc.). We only are able to see the surface which changes its shape continuously by imitating rather its background, not its hidden essence. There is nothing interior in his texts, too, everything is surface-like, i.e. everything is visible just like as a painter's painting.
