[The neuropsychological hypothesis of the mechanisms of poetic inspiration].
The work is devoted to analysis of the mental state under poetic inspiration. A classification is made concerning psychological features of poetic inspiration on the basis of poem citations from Russian poets. A class of specific states in psychiatry (psychosensory disorders) is considered which resembles the states described for poetic inspiration. Neuropsychological data allowed to suggest some neuronal mechanisms and brain structures which could form the state of poetic inspiration.
