ENIn the article titled "Poetics of stars in novels of J. Biliūnas and A. Vienuolis" Lina Tomanaitė states that images of the Universe (the sky and the atmosphere, the Earth, the flora and the fauna) are often in fiction. Literature specialists and linguists almost have not discussed these images. Some more attention is paid on flora life. Man's relation with the Universe, with heavenly bodies is rather seldom deeply revealed in prose. A semantic group of the celestial bodies, especially names of the cosmic bodies, actually has not been analysed. The author of the article gives an analysis of characteristic features of stars as heavenly bodies.
