Abstract
The aim of this article was to reveal the specifics of creating a word picture in the works by A. S. Grin. To this end, an analysis of language means used by the writer was carried out. The article considers associativity as the leading principle of the writer’s artistic style. An analysis of a fragment of the short story «Ships in Liss» illustrated the role of initial comparison as a means of organizing the language material and identifying the meaning of the work. The method of comparative analysis was used to establish similarities and differences in the process of creating artistic images. The semantic-stylistic method was used to describe the semantic and connotative volume of an analysed unit in the text. The method of determining associative relations allowed the subtext of the work to be revealed. A conclusion is drawn about the significant role of associations in the construction and understanding of the imagery of A. S. Grin.
