Приемы словесной живописи Юрия Анненкова (на примере литературного портрета «Борис Пастернак»)

Abstract

The article analyzes the ways of creating a verbal portrait in the memoirs of Yu. Annenkov’s „Boris Pasternak” with the substantiation of genre and style features of the considered verbal image which allows to take a fresh look at the already textbook image of the writer. Capturing the image of the poet and prose writer B. Pasternak, the painter creates both a self-portrait and the portrait of the era. Thus, Yuri Annenkov’s literary heritage turns out to be the second portrait gallery, for which the artist once again paints his relatives and dear people, who remained on his canvases. The purpose of this work is an attempt to show the features of verbal image in Yuri Annenkov’s book of memoirs “Diary of my meetings”, “Cycle of tragedies” on the example of the essay “Boris Pasternak”, to enrich the image of the writer through the prism of perception of his contemporary artist. This study is based on comparative historical and functional methods and is based on the works of contemporary literary scholars engaged in the theory and history of prose portrait.
