Abstract

The article explores the specifics of Pushkin’s portrait as a media image based on The Shot, The Queen of Spades, and The Captain’s Daughter stories. The external portrait of his characters is concise and consists of several expressive details. The author delegates it to other characters. At first glance, the portrait is created according to romantic patterns: an unusual name, an intriguing appearance, a mysterious past, strange habits. Meanwhile, all the images are realistic. The writer creates an intriguing portrait – a false external portrait of a character hiding the image’s idea. The author reveals the essence of the character through its “internal portrait,” which can be seen on the ontological level, comprehending the genesis of its name and the life secret, the character’s real world and personal space, the character’s place in the plot of the work and the situation of choice. Pushkin’s prose is like a detective film, where the image of the character will still have to be unraveled by the reader.

 

Keywords:  External portrait, image, intrigue portrait, name genesis, portrait as a text, physical world
