Popis: In the work, on extensive factual material of the works included in K.G. Paustovsky’s Collected Works, on the example of the lexeme forest functioning, correlating with a wide range of attributes and predicates, a significant fragment of K.G. Paustovsky’s language picture of the world is reconstructed. Considering the importance of the coloristic component for the writer’s worldview, it seems appropriate to identify the specifics of the forest individual author’s color per-ception and visualization. Key findings: 1) the coloristic spectrum used by the writer to visualize the forest is established; 2) the dominants of this spectrum are identified; 3) the functional poten-tial of the color terms is identified; 4) the determinism of the forest coloristic characteristics is de-termined; 5) the correlation of national and individual author’s in color visualization of the forest is established; 6) the specifics of the author’s color style of writing is described, all this in complex contribute to holistic reconstruction of the writer’s coloristic picture of the world. The theoretical basis of the study are the key provisions of linguistics of color, the methodological basis – a set of methods used at different stages of work, including the continuous sampling method, descriptive-analytical, contextual, and quantitative data processing.
