WAYS OF VERBALIZING CHARACTERS' EMOTIONAL STATES IN RUSSIAN CLASSICAL PROSE

The article explores artistic anthropology in nineteenth-century Russian classical literature through the prism of the ways characters' emotional states are verbalized. The author analyzes the lexico-semantic, syntactic, and metaphorical means used by writers to recreate the inner world of a human being, including psychological nuances, hidden affects, and emotional crises. The focus centers on the techniques of psychological analysis developed in the prose of I. S. Turgenev, L. N. Tolstoy, and F. M. Dostoevsky. As a result of the study, the key types of emotion nomination and description are identified, reflecting the shift in literary paradigms and the deepening of realistic psychologism.
