The features of the observer’s perception of the landscape, the spatial position of the speaker-observer in relation to the observed object are identified: the observer may be in the space of the situation and be synchronous to it or may be at some distance, both spatial and temporal, from the observed object. The language means of explication of the observer in speech such as “description” and “narration” are considered. The work shows how in the work of IA Bunin "First Love" observer during the deployment of the text undergoes changes, which is reflected in different levels of the text: semantic, grammatical, compositional.
