Abstract
Consideration of the system of spatial elements (loci) in A.S. Pushkin’s fairy tales about the fisherman and the fish and about the dead princess in relation to the plots from the collection of fairy tales by the brothers Grimm (“About the Fisherman and his Wife” and “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs”) shows their structural similarity. However, if in the “Tale of the Fisherman and the Fish” it is difficult to detect significant differences in spatial organization from the German plot, then in the “Tale of the Dead Princess” there are significant differences in terms of the organization of space as a whole and the attributes of spatial elements from the German “Snow White”, which is due to the deliberate Russification of the literary fairy tale and the use of the poet’s own folklore records.
