This article is devoted to developing cognitive skills of interpreting literary texts. Cognitive interpretation of literary texts (English language texts) is considered from the point of view of its language teaching potential. The author defines interpretation as a cognitive and creative process. Samples of students' interpretation of literary texts in English, their typical mistakes, as well as possible ways of correcting students' misinterpretations are provided.
