Abstract

The article considers a monograph by Professor Galina Kozubovskaya Russian Literature and the Poetics of the Visible (2021), devoted to the diverse artistic functions of verbal painting in Russian poetry and prose of the XIXth century. The article describes analytical tools and scientific logic, with the help of which the literary critic scrupulously and successfully explores the phenomenon of the visible. It is shown how different techniques of landscape verbal painting, costume poetics, food motifs help, on the one hand, to detect the tenacious observation of the masters of the word, their ability to build an image plan in the text, and, on the other hand, to focus the readers attention on the creative reconstruction of the archetypes of mythological consciousness and traces of literary tradition flickering in the text.
