Abstract

Goals. The article aims to examine works of Evgeniy Lukin and Sergey Sinyakin for artistic features inherent to Tsaritsyn, Stalingrad, and Volgograd local texts. Results. Despite the commonness of geographical coordinates, the techniques employed by the two authors to create local texts relating to both realistic and fantastic fiction are different. The realistic depiction of Stalingrad’s contexts is primarily determined by patriotic interpretations of the city’s image that afford no satirical depreciation, while the Volgograd and Tsaritsyn texts may include some particular elements of the comic. In fantastic narratives of Evgeniy Lukin and Sergey Sinyakin, local text is organized through the contamination of original spatial images and their comic transformations as a result of the postmodern ‘game with the reader”.
