Abstract. The article examines the specificity of representing national stereotypes in autobiographical works of the modern English writer Stephen Fry. The paper aims to identify culturological and social dominants in the novels "Moab Is My Washpot", "The Fry Chronicles: An Autobiography", "More Fool Me: A Memoir" promoting the formation of the other’s stereotypic image. The analysis of the problem of Englishness in relation to Stephen Fry’s creative work has allowed revealing the dualism of the author’s approach to interpreting the other’s image in the context of stereotypic consciousness.
