Russian term

с точки зрения психологии и всего облика мира

Russian to English Art/Literary Poetry & Literature
Однако с точки зрения психологии и всего облика вымышленного мира, такой стиль общения исключительно к месту, так что, если уж вам не пришлись по вкусу диалоги - скорее всего, то же самое вы скажете и обо всей книге в целом.

Речь идет о психологических мотивировках героев в вымышленном мире романа.
Конечно, "c точки зрения психологии" естественнее всего перевести psychologically, но в этом случае такой вариант вряд ли подходит...

Discussion

Mikhail Kropotov Oct 12, 2017:
What amazes me more is how most answerers translate just the words in the title of this question, ignoring the rest of the sentence. Is that a CAT syndrome?
The Misha Oct 12, 2017:
Except that the authors of your sentence is confusing psychology with philosophy. What you would really want to say is the "philosophy and visual imagery of this fictional world". That's more or less how it would most likely be phrased by an English speaker.

не уверен, что нужно переводить "вымышленный мир". это фантастика / фэнтези или не очень? если не очень, можно обойтись фразой "the whole world the novel is in"

this is entirely consistent есть перевод для "исключительно к месту"
