Bibliopsychology: Classics, Thinking and The Human Mind

The University of World Economy and Diplomacy organized an intellectual, psychological and creative competition entitled “Bibliopsychology: Classics, Thinking and the Human Mind” to promote students’ reading culture, deepen their interest in national literary heritage and develop their psychological competencies.

The event was held in collaboration with N. Norova, the University Psychologist, and course coordinators. It aimed to support students’ independent thinking, analytical skills, creative potential and personal development through the integration of literature and psychology.

During the competition, participants explored the content and meaning of literary works and analysed the character traits, emotional experiences and behavioural motives of literary characters from a psychological perspective. They also demonstrated their knowledge of classical literature and actively participated in creative tasks involving the dramatic interpretation of literary characters, critical thinking and the application of literary insights to real-life situations.

The psychological component of the event placed particular emphasis on developing empathy, emotional intelligence, effective communication, critical thinking and teamwork. The role of literature in understanding the human mind, broadening personal perspectives and fostering a conscious approach to social relationships was also highlighted.

At the conclusion of the competition, active participants were awarded certificates and commemorative gifts.

This seminar and training session represents an important area of educational, personal development and psychological work aimed at strengthening students’ reading culture and psychological literacy, while enhancing their intellectual potential, creative thinking and personal competencies.
