The main goal of the study is to present the basic theoretical and methodological apparatus for the interdiscursive analysis of the use of negative and liminal knowledge in literature with the focus on speculative fiction. For this purpose, we use the original literary statements of the American writer Ted Chiang, in whose work the regularity of meta-discursive thematization of forms of constructing knowledge is manifested. We operate in the marked methodological vectors of constructivism, but with emphasis on its cognitive branch. The conceptual integration theory and research on counterfactual thinking is applied to connections of multiple special discourses in speculative fiction. Three distinct forms of knowledge (propositional, procedural and phenomenal) are covered in this research to understand the unique role of literature as an interdiscourse where knowledge can be communicated by what is untrue or unknown in science.

Following the contemporary trend of live-action remakes of classic children’s films, the study offers a cognitive approach to children’s adaptations at the intersection of adaptation studies and the cognitive branch of non-radical constructivism. After a brief theoretical-methodological introduction an interpretation of two film versions of Pinocchio from 2022 is presented. The article will demonstrate how the latest adaptations Pinocchio by Robert Zemeckis and Guillermo del Toro’s Pinocchio by Guillermo del Toro and Mark Gustafson, offer children the opposite direction of experience in the theme of accepting their own identity. This will be evident despite their very similar departure from the traditional paradigm of Pinocchio stories.

This study analyses the famous novel The Notebook (Le Grand Cahier, 1986) by the Hungarian-Swiss Francophone novelist Ágota Kristóf (1935–2011) and its film adaptation The Notebook (A nagy füzet, 2013) directed by Hungarian film director János Szász, as the allegory of “Big History”, as the recording of human tragedy (or the tragedy of human destructiveness and lust for power) and also the tragedy of the individual. We also focus on special narrative techniques (1st person plural narrator, narrative voice as homo duplex), which are especially significant in relation to brutal scenes of violence, sexual deviations, moral violations, and its film transformation.
