Summary:The goal of this work was to build semantic maps of the Russian language in the three-dimensional space of the neural network activity of the brain. For the construction of the maps, fMRI data were used that were recorded upon presentation to the subject of two types of texts - technical instructions and a description of nature from classical works. A comparison was made in spatial localization among 10 categories: space, time, form, animate or inanimate object, etc. The obtained data showed strong individual specificity of representation of semantic categories in the brain.
