L. CARROLL’S ARTISTIC IMAGES IN NARRATIVE"ABOUT BABAKA KOSTOCHKINA-2" BY A. NICOLSKAYA
In the given article the typological relations between narrative «About Babaka Kostochkina-2» by modern Russian writer Anna Nicolskaya and fairy tail «Alice in Wonderland» by Lewis Carroll are analyzed. It is noted that both texts were written in the esthetic manner of nonsense literature. The author concludes that A. Nicolskaya consciously uses L. Carroll’s literary traditions (poetics, system of images, plot); like Carroll, Nicolskaya chooses pun (mainly phonetic), logical nonsense, ironic tonality of tails as stylistic dominants of her prose. The experience of literary studying of A. Nicolskaya’s tails is summarized.
