First of all it gives outlines of the leading position of the time in the binarization of time / space and explanations for relationships of the narrators time and the autobiographical heros time. The epic time is described as the basic time of the narrator, which manifests itself mainly in two points - change or cessation of chronological movements of the hero. The biographical time is regarded as the dominant time of the autobiographical hero, in which growth and evolution of the hero occur. The study on intersection of the biographical time with historical, everyday and mythological times occupies a great place in the article.</p>Modern Russian autobiographical prosenarrator’s timeautobiographical hero’s timeepic timebiographical timehistorical timeeveryday timemythological timeСовременная русская автобиографическая прозавремя повествователявремя автобиографического герояэпическое времябиографическое времяисторическое времябытовое времямифологическое время[Bakhtin M.M.
