Abstract

The article presents a study of the flash fiction written by the contemporary Kazakhstani writer Ilya Odegov from the perspective of the theory of translingualism. The aim of the article is to consider peculiar features of author’s individual view of the world that was formed in the conditions of Kazakh reality by a bilingual writer of the Russian origin; to determine the nature of the influence of artistic transculturality on the cognitive view of the world of a creative person. The article focuses on identifying images of the Kazakh linguistic culture explicated in the flash fiction of Ilya Odegov. These images manifest ethno-cultural specificity of the writer’s transcultural creative personality and his individual author’s view of the world. The study of the fiction written by a representative of the “borderland literature” in the context of translingualism will allow us toconsider it in the light of the general trend in the development of world literature gravitating towards transculturality.
