THE NOVEL “THE LAST OF THE GONE” BY BAGRAT SHINKUBA: STYLE, MOTIVES, IMAGES

Abstract

In the article, based on biographical information about Bagrat Shinkuba and assumptions about his personal word-creative motivation, problems related to the analysis of “The Last of the Gone” are considered. The author of the article, both analytically and comparatively, asserts the professional design of the text inherent in the named novel in its stylistic originality inherent in the writer’s style. The frank confession of the narrator in the novel and the writer’s motivation highlighted in the article make it possible for the writer to create a novel-discovery about the Ubykhs. As Marziyat Bidanok asserts in her analysis of the novel text, the dignity of presentation, manifested in the process of the author’s construction of the material, is undoubtedly here in the case of a syllabic form containing a confession. Thus, the researcher achieves the main scientific goal: she traces the characteristic syllable of the analyzed Abkhaz writer textual arrangement, which is demonstrated through the artistic expressiveness of a modern historical novel.
