В ряде исследований недавно было высказано предположение, что поддержание ложных воспоминаний может давать эпистемические преимущества; в частности, это связано с тем, что они могут способствовать поддержанию связного представления о себе. Данная статья также рассматривает проблему связности, однако фокусируется не на проблеме поддержания связных представлений о себе, а на проблеме достижения последовательности нарратива. Этот вопрос раскрывается на материале анализа ложных воспоминаний, которые возникают при воспроизведении сюжетов легенд и сказок. Показано, что мнимые воспоминания о сюжетных поворотах сказок и легенд позволяют поддерживать последовательность нарратива. В тексте разбираются и клинические, и неклинические примеры ложных воспоминаний; несмотря на различную этиологию, во всех случаях можно наблюдать сходные функции ложных воспоминаний. Далее автор сравнивает способы, которые используются для поддержания последовательности рассказа при ложных воспоминаниях, и способы, которые служат той же задаче в обыденном мышлении (mundane reasoning). Согласно концепции Мелвина Поллнера, поддержание последовательности - это один из фундаментальных принципов организации повседневных описаний (accounts). Эти принципы имеют важные эпистемические функции; наиболее важными из них являются функция обоснования знания и их роль в поддержании «онтологической безопасности». Далее автор приходит к заключению, что ложные воспоминания могут выполнять аналогичные эпистемические функции. Таким образом, показано, как мнимые воспоминания определенного типа могут иметь позитивное эпистемическое значение.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The paper examines the epistemic significance of maintaining consistency in confabulations. It has been argued recently that confabulations might have some positive epistemic features; notable among them is maintaining a consistent set of beliefs about oneself. This paper focuses on confabulatory beliefs which are not connected with a self-concept. However, it is demonstrated that such beliefs might contribute to maintaining narrative consistency and thus also yield some epistemic benefits. The author analyzes cases of confabulations concerning legends and fairy-tales, and shows how confabulatory utterances contribute to the maintenance of consistency. The examples analyzed include both clinical and non-clinical confabulations; yet, in all instances, confabulations contribute to maintaining narrative consistency. Subsequently, the author compares the ways of maintaining consistency in confabulations and in mundane cognition. Based on Melvin Pollner's conception of mundane reasoning, it is demonstrated that maintaining consistency is a fundamental principle of organizing mundane accounts. It is also proposed that basic principles of mundane cognition have substantial epistemic functions; among them, their foundational role and their contribution to the sense of ontological security are of particular importance. Finally, it is shown that confabulations of a certain type might have the same epistemic functions. Consequently, producing confabulatory accounts might yield significant epistemic benefits in certain cases.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>конфабуляция</kwd><kwd>ложные воспоминания</kwd><kwd>мнимые воспоминания</kwd><kwd>обыденное мышление</kwd><kwd>онтологическая безопасность</kwd><kwd>Поллнер</kwd><kwd>принцип последовательности</kwd><kwd>эпистемология</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>confabulation</kwd><kwd>consistency</kwd><kwd>epistemology</kwd><kwd>mundane reason</kwd><kwd>ontological security</kwd><kwd>Pollner</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Albert H.
