Dostoïevski, Baxtin et le fantastique
Revue des etudes slaves. 2021. Vol. XCII. No. 3-4. P. 525–534.
Serge Zenkine
In his analysis of Dostoevsky’s Double, Mixail Baxtin pays little attention to the fantastic, which is a major effect of this story. This article first shows the links between The Double and the romantic fantastic tale (distinctive themes, narrative ambiguity). We then review the Baxtinian analysis, which excludes the problem of fiction and is limited to the description of verbal composition. Finally, we isolate some fictional elements of The Double which, without lending themselves to this (meta)linguistic analysis, introduce ambiguity into the fictional world by going beyond the horizon of the hero and the reader: the naming repeated many times and becoming strange of “Mister Goliadkin”, a melodramatic letter that he believes to receive, the scenes of scandals in which he is involved. Based on the interweaving of two “voices” that form the hero’s speech, the fantastic goes further, moving from the author’s creative activity to the reader’s receiving experience.

The story of the Tower of Babel (Gen 11:1-9) is one of the key episodes in the narratives of the Book of Genesis. In modern scholarship, various—often sharply divergent—datings of this pericope are proposed, as well as different interpretations of its place in the picture of the formation of the biblical text that was put ...

Like other narratives in the Book of Genesis, the story of Cain and Abel (Gen 4:1–16) has been studied and commented upon for more than two millennia. However, recent scholarship has introduced significant revisions to traditional interpretations. Over the past five years, several monumental commentaries on Genesis 1–11 have been published, offering new—and sometimes mutually ...

The article reconstructs the 'biography' of an alleged (in fact, non-existent) fragment of

references to the fragment emerged during the preliminary publication of the Scrolls in the
1950s, the scholarly attention this fragment received, its eventual disappearance from Qumran
studies after the official ...

factors such as animacy, referentiality, morphological and semantic properties,
or syntactic position may determine the presence or absence of number marking.
The corpus study investigates ...

This book is a metaphysical inquiry into the nature and origin of the manifold. Taking Schelling’s Erlangen lectures of 1820–1821 as its point of departure and hermeneutic horizon, it develops an interpretation of Nomos that transcends its political, juridical, and social determinations. Nomos thereby emerges as the ontological principle of an infinite, variegated multiplicity of ...

Новая книга Д. Файзова пронизана голосами других поэтов. Речь не о расхожей постмодернистской центонности. Это микроинтертекстуальность на уровне конкретных слов и приемов, коллаж осколков чужих голосов, однако таких осколков, которые сохраняют способность отсылать к целому и к тому же вписаны — вклеены на манер аппликации — в узнаваемую интонацию самого поэта. Данил Файзов—поэт, культуртрегер, редактор. ...

В эссе «Через линию» (1950) Эрнст Юнгер исследует нигилизм как ключевую проблему современности — болезнетворный процесс, охвативший всю планету. Отталкиваясь от идей Достоевского и Ницше, автор предлагает три подхода к проблеме: диагноз, прогноз и терапию. Если в «Рабочем» (1932) Юнгер видел выход в «тотальной мобилизации», то теперь он говорит о необходимости «пересечь линию» — преодолеть ...

В данной статье рассматриваются пародийные тексты трубадуров-анонимов XII–XIII вв., в которых деконструируются традиционные представления о «fin’amor» – «совершенной любви», воспеваемой трубадурами. В качестве методологической основы используется концепция пародии, предложенная М. М. Бахтиным. Авторы анализируют значение пародийных текстов в лирике трубадуров и приходят к выводу, что «fin’amor», которую ниспровергают многие трубадуры, не лишается своей значимости, а, напротив, обретает новые ...
