The study is devoted to the analysis of the features of the realization of the binary archetypal image of the House-the Anti-Dom in the structure of the Mari novels of the second half of the 20th - beginning of the 21st century. Based on the works of Mari prose writers Yu. Artamonov, G. Alekseev, M. Ilibaeva, M. Ushakova establish the functional features of the archetype: the house is the background where events develop, the house is the means of characterizing its inhabitants, the house is the actor, the artistic character of the work, the house is a reflection of modern reality. Whereas in the 1970s and 1980s, the house was a cozy, safe place that unites families, binds generations, and remains faithful to the precepts of their ancestors; from the end of the 20th century to the beginning of the 21st century, it has been transformed.
