Abstract. The article provides a comprehensive study of adjectives involved in creating the Arctic landscape in Jack London’s "northern" story collections "The Son of the Wolf", "The God of His Fathers" and "Children of the Frost". It is shown that in the majority of cases, the adjectives denote colour and light, size, location and order of objects, temperature and mood as an element of subjective emotional evaluation. The suggested lexico-semantic classification of adjectives is supplemented with a concise analysis of their combinability and structural peculiarities.
