The purpose of the article is to clarify the value architectonics of Dostoevsky’s novel «The Brothers Karamazov» in terms of the meaning of the idea of the Church in its motive structure. The idea of the Church is considered as a sense-forming element of the author’s concept of the novel. It is proved that the Church is understood by Dostoevsky not only as a social institution, manifested in the microcosm of the monastic structure, but also as a community of the entire created world, acquired by him in his Creator. The idea of the Church in the novel is intertwined with the idea of the unity of the visible and invisible worlds, the ideas of spiritual overcoming of spatial distance and physical time. At the narrative level, the idea of the Church in the novel is realized in the motives of bowing, love of life, motives of guilt and responsibility associated with the formula “everyone is to blame for everyone”, which includes the entire created world, including both people and the world of nature.

The phenomenon of the disease, which has recently become the object of study of many humanities disciplines, is fruitfully investigated in literary studies, including in dissertations. The article examines the validity of the introduction of the term “morbual code”, the content of the concept, approaches to the analysis of works of art with “medical plots”. Attention is drawn to the “problem areas” associated with the understanding of “morbidity”, as well as to the intersections of Russian literature of the XIX and XX-XXI centuries in terms of the formation of a special optics that has become decisive for the poetics of morbidity at the present time.

The article puts forward the concept of “literary duel”. What is at issue is an exchange of personal attacks - usually partly open, partly hidden - on the part of two writers, in which a kind of “exchange of shots” takes place. Sometimes after that the exchange of shots continues. As an example, the article describes a kind of “literary duel”, which, to a certain extent, is based on a hidden intertextual polemic between Gazdanov and Nabokov. In particular, in the character of Vladimir Volf in Gazdanov’s novel “The Ghost of Alexander Volf”, there are features of Nabokov, and a parody of Gazdanov can be found in one of the minor characters of Nabokov’s sensational novel “Lolita”.

Contemporaries considered the main representatives of aesthetic criticism: V. P. Botkin, P. V. Annenkov and A. V. Druzhinin like-minded people. But they rarely referred to each other and did not assert their methodological unity. Druzhinin was a professional writer and wrote constantly, and Annenkov and Botkin were amateurs: living in literature, arts, they wrote occasionally. Therefore, Druzhinin’s aesthetic legacy looks confused and archaic, while Annenkov and Botkin’s aesthetic legacy looks solid and promising. However, Druzhinin’s aesthetic throwing is fraught with future discoveries, which gives them special weight and significance. Annenkov saw the “mirror” of society in literature and often wrote about social types, although his assessments were diametrically opposed to the democratic camp. Druzhinin has very few social type analyses, and Botkin has none.In the interpretation of the role of criticism in the literary process, the “priceless triumvirate” was more unanimous. All of them used the generally accepted terminology (“the purpose of poetry is poetry”, art is a school of feelings, pleasant and useful, “defeated difficulty”) and considered art the only means of moral education of a person, recognizing the educational value not in abstract thought, but in the beauty, “grace” of a work of art. Annenkov, Botkin and Druzhinin continue Pushkin’s interpretation of the “purpose of art” as “an ideal, not a moral teaching.” But their concepts foreshadow either the theory of L. Tolstoy’s infection, or the theory of art as the embodiment of Fet’s beauty. But Annenkov and Botkin believe that in the process of creativity and perception of a literary text, the reader only repeats the actions of the author and does not commit actions not programmed by the authors. Druzhinin recognizes the great independence of the reader.

Archetipical and symbolic images and motifs of abyss, chaos, labyrinth and circle are analyzed. They define the change of the functions of gothic horror. The study looks at the problem of representation of ritual-mythological “rite de passage”, images of “dance macabre”, visual and sound symbols that represent existential and metaphysic fear.

The article is devoted to the relations between N. Ya. Prokopovich (1810 1857) and his great namesake, when they started their adult life, in particular stories with the idyll “Hanz Küchelgarten” (1829). Only after Gogol’s death, Prokopovich announced to P. Kulish, the writer’s biographer, that he accidentally found out about the authorship of that “poem” and the annihilation of its entire circulation. However, our research suggests that it was conceived by two Nikolays, although its text was mainly written by N. Prokopovich. N. Gogol-Yanovsky took an active part in its creation, and then, believing in its success, became its publisher. After the failure, he, feeling guilty before a friend, entrusted him to edit the first edition of the comedy The Inspector General and his first Collected Works.
