The article describes the basic scientific position regarding the poetic style, com­bining the two scientists during the internationally acclaimed life. Both elevate the rank of art literature and seek organic unity of the linguistic and literary poetics. «Our domes­tic concept poetics – emphasized acad. V.V. Vinogradov – has evolved in parallel with the concepts of Western European type schools Vossler, Spitzer, Walzel». Russian scientist were parti­cularly attracted by the sharpness of Vossler’s setting the connection bet­ween language history and the history of literature and art. This fact so greatly impressed Vinogradov that he put Potebnya's name next to the name of Vossler. Vinogradov gene­rally gives a positive assessment of what offers Vossler: «Well, when the literary critic and linguist help each other, deepening the understanding of a work of art – to this inte­raction encourages Vossler». A work of art in its aesthetic content is a free expression of the spiritual essence of a man – the creator. Fossler after Croce treats it as an aesthetic pro­cess in language which reveals spiritual acti­vity of creator. Under the influence of the ideas of Vinogradov and Vossler researchers have a new problem to interpret the values in the literature and evaluation using stylistic me­thods. In modern philology linguistic poe­tics efforts to achieve positive integration of li­terary scho­lars and linguists act in «strong» and «weak» versions. The «strong» versi­on is aimed at deve­lopment of descriptive and interpretive theory of literature based on linguistic methods. «Weak» option directs linguistic poetics only to literary work area.
