Abstract: The subject of the research is the analysis of the parady function of genre inserts in a literary text. The object of the research is the novel A School for Fools written by Sasha Sokolov and published in 1975. In the course of her research Sysoeva compares genre inserts that can be found in the novel (business letter, petition, explanatory memorandum, lecture, oath and composition) with 'primary' conversational genres and describes common features and differences. Sysoeva demonstrates how Sasha Sokolov brightly and vividly uses stylistic cliches of these genres. In her research Sysoeva analyzes the systems typological, historical literary methods as well as the method of intertextual analysis. The methodological basis of the research includes works of M. Bakhtin, D. Likhachev, V. Proppa, V. Novikov, L. Kikhney, V. Ivanyuk, I. Silantiev, M. Lipovetsky and S. Fedyurko. The main results of the research are the following. In his novel A School for Fools Sasha Sokolov uses varied compositional inserts, for example, business letter, explanatory memorandum and petition (business style) and composition and lecture (academic style). There is also a genre modification that remind an oath used in the novel. The parody effect is created as a result of revealed conventions of expressive means and techniques, stereotypical characters and plot situations. Cliches of conversational and literary genres do not always bring additional meanings to the novel but acquire additional meanings themselves. In Sasha Sokolov's novels literary parody is not only means of overcoming of traditions and canons and demythologization but also a condition for creation a game situation of a dialogue.
