The article paper reveals the main specific features of the representation of German heroes in the novel ‘The Ice House’ by I. I. Lazhechnikov. It was found that the main means of creating images of these characters are portraying, the expressive artistic detail, and speech characteristics. Comparisons with representatives of the animal world that are present in the portrait descriptions of the Germans are subordinated to the purpose not only to point out the specific features of the external appearance of the latter, but also to emphasize the negative attitude of the narrator towards these characters. The main criterion for evaluating the German heroes is their attitude towards Russia and its native inhabitants. I. I. Lazhechnikov does not set himself the tasks of studying the specific features of the German mentality and traditions, but he shows and evaluates the characters only in the aureole of their behavior and actions. |
