Phraseology is an important means of reflecting the author's worldview and strategy. The genre of a literary work strongly influences the choice of tools for text creation. Thus, the genre of drama reveals a large layer of phraseological units that perform various functions within the text. Phraseology is also an important means of linking man to the outside world. Phraseological units act as social codes. One of the main functions of phraseology is creating a speech characteristic and the image of the character. Large numbers of such units are found in Sukhovo-Kobylin's drama. The aim of this study is to analyze the phraseology in the speech of four characters of the dramas "The Case" (“Delo”) and "Tarelkin's Death" (“Smert' Tarelkina”). It is worth noting that according to the plot, all the characters are officials, representing the government and law. The analysis shows that the phraseological units have mostly negative connotations and denote negative sides of the characters: greed, mercenariness, heartlessness, cruelty, stupidity and lust for unbridled power. The playwright condemns the officials and the entire court system of the 19th century Russia. The phraseological units are an effective means of expressing the author's position, becoming a symbol of the government's lawlessness. In the context of the analysis, it is necessary to take into account some biographical data behind "The Case" and "Tarelkin's Death": Sukhovo-Kobylin had long been suspected of murder and consequently, knew the details of legal proceedings well. High emotional potential of the transformations of ordinary phraseological units by the author not only works as a means of blaming the officials and the whole judicial system, but also becomes the manifestation of a personal tragic experience. Studying phraseology allows the reader to identify the peculiarities of the language of a literary work, and to imagine the characters more distinctly. It also helps to conveying the author’s strategy by different means and devices, especially grotesque.
