FUNCIONAL TYPES OF FOLKLORE CHARACTERS IN NIKOLAY KLYUEV`S POETRY
This article presents the study of functional types of ‘folklorisms' in N.A. Klyuev`s poetry. Besides folklore charac-ters, the article explores the precedent names and commonly used animate nouns which are given through a folklore understanding in the texts of the poet. To determine folklore code of the words, a comparative method of Klyuev`s texts with folklore texts and context analysis is employed. The article provides a brief overview of some basic research on folklore foundations of N. Klyuev's creativity, an attempt to define the main functional types of folklorisms on the base of the folklore vocabulary classification by L.G Yatskevich, and partially the question whether the N. Klyuev's poetry can be considered as a result of stylization.
