Abstract

The author examines the main features of the individual artistic style of N. Leskov by analysing his chronicle «Soboryane» (1872). The specific features of Leskov’s approach to the chronicle genre are revealed. The components of the narrative manner are explored in detail; the linguistic representational and expressive techniques of the author, as well as his new lexical formations, are investigated. The paper outlines the literary and linguistic tradition, which Leskov addresses to his followers. The linguopoetic analysis was carried out in close connection with the ideological content of the literary work, which allowed the «inner linguistic world» of the text to be revealed.
