Abstract. The article considers A. S. Pushkin’s indirect address to the archetypal plot about the prodigal son. Author’s consciousness realizes the possibility of the parable main image transformation into the ambiguous images that widen the range of semantic meanings of the word "prodigal", so that the dichotomy "prodigal – righteous" appears in the texts.
Key words and phrases: мотивы "отцы – дети", "блудный сын", межтекстовые связи, сюжет-архетип, театральность, дихотомия, motives "fathers – children", "prodigal son", intertextual connections, plot-archetype, theatricality, dichotomy
