Keyword: «binary oppositions»

The relevance of the proposed study lies in the fact that the study of binary oppositions, their functioning and features of verbalization in the linguistic and mythopoetic worldviews of a particular author is intended to help reconstruct the model of the world that has formed in his mind. Currently, there are no works devoted to such an analysis of A. Platonov's work.The purpose of our work is to consider the functioning of the binary opposition "earth – sky" in A. Platonov's novel "Chevengur" and to identify the individual author's features of the writer's mythopoetic worldview in relation to the national worldview.
