Constant notions and artistic constants of Boris Pilniak’s works realised in the collection of short stories Byl’ye (Bygones, 1920) are considered in the article. Units of different levels, such as images, motifs and idea oppositions are marked out among the mentioned constants. The latter concept is introduced for a more exact description of the considered unit. Constants of different levels are united into subject groups and considered as the means that disclose different problems within the bounds of the declared themes. Since the collected stories Byl’ye became the base of the novel The Naked Year, marking out the constant notions and artistic constants of the collection makes a contribution to the novel’s interpretation.
Key words: constants, images, motifs, idea oppositions, Russia and Europe, revolution,
the present.
