Geography for fun in Sophie de Ségur’s “Général Dourakine»
   
Abstract. The article discusses the features of the geographic space representation in S. de Ségur's novel «Général Dourakin» (1863). In the novel the real toponyms interact with fictitional ones, and characters' journey to Russia described extremely laconically and without any apparent nostalgia appears as an imaginary return of a writer who had left her homeland forever to her family nest - Voronovo estate situated near Moscow. In this description writer's personal experience combines with some toposes of travel notes written by foreigners visited Russia and with toposes of mass literature.

Key words: geography, novel, travel, homeland, berline, St. Petersburg, Moscow, winter, paraliterature.
