Abstract
Aim. To trace the ways of the author’s interaction with the reader in the collection “Evenings on a farm near Dikanka” by N. V. Gogol.
Methodology. Narrational strategies of N. Gogol in “Evenings on a farm near Dikanka” are identified from the standpoint of receptive aesthetics, their impact on the “perceiving consciousness” is also noted. The study is based on descriptive and systemic approaches to literary text.
Results. It was established that Gogol, through the use of artistic framing techniques, “speech masks”, and authorial monologue, influences the reader’s perception of the text; the role of these techniques in shaping literary experience is also noted.
Research implications. Studying this problem has allowed identifying authorial narrative techniques in the collection “Evenings on a farm near Dikanka”. The obtained results may be useful for literary research dedicated to the role of the reader in the process of reception and interpretation of artistic works.
