Abstract
Literature of the “golden age” of Russian literature, as a rule, was not considered in terms of ornamentality, with the exception of some works by A. S. Pushkin, N. V. Gogol, A. P. Chekhov. The relevance of the article is determined by the fact that “ornamentality” makes it possible to identify the features of poetics throughout the entire career of I. A. Goncharov. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that the author refers to a little-studied problem in pottery - “ornamental prose”, the study of which allows touching on the unidentified issues of rhythm. Some ornamental means mainly on the material of the “small” prose of I. A. Goncharov analyzed in the article. The author of the article concludes that the writer uses various figures of repetition, based on semantic redundancy, and ornamental means, focused on symmetry. The concept of polyrhythm is introduced in relation to the rhythmic structure of works by I. A. Goncharov. Thus, a rhythm is created based on the semantic “braiding”, and the principle of symmetry created by the artistic techniques of “ornamental prose” and “rhythmic prose” is observed. All this makes it possible to structure the text and overcome its formal content entropy, which determines the uniqueness of I. A. Goncharov’s “ornamentality”.
