Abstract

The article examines the possibility of creating color imagery in artistic prose. Special attention is paid to the role of the lexical, phraseological, linguocultural values of color terms from the perspective of philological reading. Research of the language of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel reveals that certain colors (red, white, pink, etc.) acquire a symbolic significance in the context.
