THE LANGUAGE OF FICTION. Captain's Daughter - "Captain's Daughter"
Pushkin liked the way Walter Scott constructed his historical novels; he said that the Scottish novelist portrayed history in a " domestic way." Pushkin set out to show the Pugachev uprising not from an official point of view, but objectively; he wanted to understand the causes and roots of the uprising, express his opinion about it, introducing fictional characters into the work and intertwining their destinies with a real historical event. Pushkin did not accidentally turn to the memoir genre - "family notes". This form was the closest and most accessible to readers.

The author calls Vasilisa Yegorovna "captain", "commandant". The colloquial style is colored by a diminutive affectionate emotional coloring in the suffixes-ik -, - ok -, - usk -, which emphasizes the kind, soft, calm relati ... Read more
