The main paradigm of modern philology knowledge is functionalism orienting on purposeful use of linguistic units (oral and written) in their system complex interaction in a speech. In connection with it there is an opportunity to revalue creatively the specificity of the mechanism of artistic discourse influence on a reader. Above mentioned mechanism is observed in the article through analysis of such word pragmatism intensifiers as elocutive colouratives. Examination of trope and figure colour designations in the frames of field system allows fixing the vector of strengthening of expressiveness intensity from the periphery to the nuclear of the semantic structure functional elocutive field. Description of figure and trope figurativeness of A.I. Kuprin's prose colour designations in their pragmatism field interpretation makes it possible to characterize the mechanism of artistic influence and to show the peculiarities of writer's individual style.
