Writers-classics and an example of artistic style

Any work of classical literature is an example of an artistic style. Its task was expressed in the rhyme by Alexander Pushkin - "induce" "feelings" with his "lyre". A characteristic feature of artistic fiction is that its plot is "launched" by the author in a special world, re-created by him with the help of created images. Indeed, the artistic style is that "lyre", which presents to the reader's imagination a special, imaginative representation of life.

Among the writers there are real virtuosos. Adorable critics call their works "poems in prose." So Turgenev and Gogol wrote. They provided each with an impressive authorial arsenal of artistic means each of its own text of an artistic style. An example can serve as Gogol's description of the Dnieper, presented by him in "Terrible Revenge". The author influences the psyche, emotions through the use of words in figurative meaning (tropes and stylistic figures). As we know, the paths are allegories, hyperboles (exaggeration), epithets (representation in image), litoty (understatement), metaphors (comparison), personification (judgment about the inanimate as a person). An example of artistic style, an obvious hyperbole, for example, is seen in the statement that not every bird is allowed to fly to the middle of the Dnieper. But what artistic power is felt here! Stylistic figures are another type of verbal constructions. This concept includes anaphora and epiphora (reinforcing the repetition of words at the beginning and end of the text, respectively), antithesis (opposition), asyndeton and polysyndeton (unionless and multi-union), oxymoron (comparison incommensurable).

The poet realizes the artistic style through poetry, the dramatist is the drama, the writer - the prose. In this case, as mentioned above, the "re-created" world invariably carries the "author's" imprint. After all, we see the plot through the eyes of the author, we see his assessments of events, people's characteristics, assumptions, reflections.

Let us recall another artistic style, which can be characterized as mixed. It is based on literary, but has significant differences. This is the artistic style of speech. Examples of texts for him use shorter phrases, the use of local slang, dialectisms is welcomed. It is aimed directly at listeners and is highly emotional. The Russian classic, our contemporary, Victor Pelevin brilliantly represents the scene of such a speech on behalf of his character - Chapaev in the stage of his performance before being sent to the front (the novel Chapaev and Void). Instead of long speeches about the attitude to the service, Pelevinsky Vasily Ivanovich expressively says: "Necha to corn! ... You will experience it yourself! "An example of an artistic style is convincing with a conversational melody, gesticulation with chopped movements, even torso turns to listeners to the right and left. His words include both archaisms, and jargon, closest to the minds of workers, they reflect what they want to hear.

Artistic style has one more feature - a concrete image. By means of it, by illuminating the private, in fact, the signs that have a broad, generic community are illuminated. By the principle of similarity, a capacious characteristic of deep social phenomena and processes is given. As an example of the artistic style in the comedy "The Inspector General" through the images of the mayor, judge, postmaster, trustee of charitable institutions, a description of the corruption of the entire provincial government of Russia of the XVIII century is presented.
