Abstract

The article is devoted to the “village prose”, one of the most popular and significant phenomenon of the Russian literature in the second half of the XX century. Phenomenal nature of the “village prose” is analyzed in its correlation with the “traditional” prose caused by a deep natural orientation of the national literary tradition but not by some teaching. This is precisely why the theoretical-and-literary concept of the “traditionalist” prose is beyond the discourse of the author’s interest, the concept correlating with the village prose writers’ literary text only at multiple strained interpretations and reserves. The presented literary-historical and literarycritical material is large and diverse. It indicates the perception of the “village prose” by the contemporaries, professional critics, literary theorists and ordinary readers. The article also reveals the “village prose” characteristics, which initiate thinking about a real historical-literary status of this phenomenon
