Abstract

The article is devoted to the study of Afanasiy Fedorov's stories, which have a central place in the writer's heritage. His genre system includes various forms of short prose: from everyday stories to plot short stories, from small sketches, sketches of a character to psychological stories. The author's skill manifested itself primarily in the creation of a diverse artistic anthropology, consisting more of human rather than social types. Therefore, in his stories there is no tendentiousness and ideological bias characteristic of socialist realism. The characters' actions are psychologically motivated. The innovation of the Yakut writer was the creation of foreign heroes. In the poetics of his stories, the tradition of Russian literature was felt: like Anton Chekhov, he strove to show the complexity and significance of life phenomena through the simplest and most insignificant events of everyday life. On the whole, the logic of Afanasiy Fedorov's work was of an inductive nature: starting with small genres of prose, he gradually moved on to large epic forms.
