What is the thing under the philosophical
interpretation? The thing is a subject of the material
reality, which existence is relatively independent and
stable. Everything has its place in space. The material
world consists of the totality of things, and that is why,
concerning the image of “the thing” in a literary work,
we address to all the objects created by men, which
enter the world of the plot. It can be a costume of a
character, an interior of his house, utensils, personal
items and many other things which compose the usual
sphere of cultural life. In the course of the
development of the society people withdraw
themselves from the natural environment; their
environment becomes man-made. The world of things
is naturally reflected in the literature, and in the course
of time its importance increases. We can explore some
features of an author’s worldview through the analysis
of his ideological and topical works. The study proves
that the material world is fully and equally represented
in the author’s stories. Therefore, the vision of the
material world is a deeper property of the author's
consciousness than the ideological and thematic
occupancy of the works. The material world is one of
the main problems of Leskov's worldview. Leskov is a
realist. The filling of the material world can be either
religious or social. In the spiritual stories «the thing»
must be pushed to the sidelines and become a religious
symbol. But Leskov breaks this system and remains
temporal
