К вопросу о «концепции "положительно-прекрасного" человека» в творчестве Н.С. Лескова
On the Issue of the “Concept of ‘Positive and Wonderfulʼ Human Being” in the Works by Nikolai Leskov

Summary/Abstract: The article deals with the concept of “positive and wonderful human being” in the N. S. Leskov artistic creation, influenced by the writer’s theological focus, relating the time of the creation of the literary production and the stage of artistic evolution and worldview of the author. It is assumed that the Leskov concept of “a positive and beautiful person” was formed in the 80’s. Purposeful artistic-aesthetic aim for “a positive and beautiful” hero probably correlates with this period. In the 60’s–80’s the artist’s aim did not consist of depicting a positive (“a positive and beautiful”) / negative type but in artistic-aesthetic depiction of differential immanent features of“a Russian character”.
