Abstract
Stereotyped ideas about the natives of Tula are revealed. The literary images of Abram Bulygin (“History of the city of Tula by the tradesman Abram Bulygin, his wonderful adventures in the world, gaiety and his works”), Lefty (“Lefty” by N. S. Leskov) and Tychka (“Legends of Master Tychka” by I. F. Pankina). Based on the analysis of the textual features of the characters, the interpretation of selected fragments of three works of art, variants of the linguacultural type of Tula are reconstructed. It has been established that in the “History of the city of Tula ...” by Abram Bulygin, the features of selfidentification of a native of Tula in the 18th century are represented. It was revealed that one of the main character traits of a native of Tula is sentimentality. Native of Tula has a practical mind, rational and economic. In the tale of N. S. Leskov “Lefty”, such qualities as a practical mind, ingenuity, the ability to conduct business, passion for one’s occupation, religiosity, devotion to business, Motherland, disinterestedness are typified. The most full and complete image of the Tula master was created by I. F. Pankin in “Legends of Master Poke”. Native of Tula is a craftsman, businesslike, silent, hardworking, courageous, willing to share his knowledge, transfer skills to his students, appreciating practical knowledge, having a sense of humor. The study revealed that the Tula culture is of the masculine type. The inhabitant of the city in the cultural consciousness is represented by the image of a skilled craftsman, gunsmith, blacksmith.
