Abstract. The article is devoted to the consideration of linguistic negativism - the creative method of Samuel Beckett, one of the brightest representatives of the "theater of the absurd" drama. It is asserted that cultural and philosophical sources of S. Beckett’s creative method go back to the philosophy of the absurd by A. Camus, French post-structuralism and works on the philosophy of the language by F. Mauthner. In the study, an attempt is made to determine the place of linguistic negativism by S. Beckett in the post-modern paradigm. The authors reveal and describe the main ways and language means of the realization of linguistic negativism basing on the textual and linguo-stylistic analysis of S. Beckett’s play "Waiting for Godot".
