The analysis of concepts makes it possible to understand their functions and role in the construction and eventual perception of the literary text, and promotes the development of the author's idea in his work. In Herman Melville’s novel Moby Dick, or The Whale it is manifested in the selection of concepts reflected in the writer’s work, in his individual works and in the selection of expressive and visual means.
