The article is devoted to the study of archaisms and historicisms in the literary works of V.M. Shukshin. The work was carried out using the methods of lexicology and linguistic analysis of the text, i.e. lexicographic work was carried out using dictionaries, and the use and functioning of archaisms and historicisms was carefully analyzed in the works of the selected writer. The author hypothesized that V. M. Shukshin, as a master of artistic description of mostly rural and illiterate people, used widely not only dialect and vernacular vocabulary in his works, but also archaisms and historicisms. It is important that, according to our assumptions, V. M. Shukshin used these outdated lexemes in the living colloquial speech of the Siberian village inhabitants, which he describes in many works.
