Abstract

The article deals with the creative refraction of Aleksey Remizov’s style in philological prose of the late 20th century. It is shown that it was Remizov who became the source of some philological ideas, as well as a “role model” of literary behavior for some writers. Remizov created a series of metaliterary books, where he offered a hermeneutic reading and a completely unexpected interpretation of the works of the classics. Many of his observations regarding the nature of creativity and “literary masks” were perceived by his attentive readers-philologists and dissolved in their individual styles. The section “Behind the mask of a fabulous thief” is dedicated to the style strategies of A. Sinyavsky. In the section “On the secret writing of the essayist”, some artistic techniques of A. Zholkovsky are analyzed. The article shows how writers and philologists in individual authors’ forms “reincarnate” Remizov’s stylistic techniques and strategies.
