| Abstract [eng] |
The article analyzes the neo-baroque elements in the work of the writer Yury Buida, considers the concepts of neo-Baroque (Benjamin, Deleuze, Calabrese, Lipovetsky), as well as the relationships between Baroque and neo-Baroque in postmodern poetics. In Buida’s prose such distinctive features of neo-Baroque aesthetics are revealed as excessive quoting and genre-style eclecticism (“The Fifth Kingdom”); “rhythm of repetitions and breaks” in repetitive motifs and representation of the characters (“Everyone flowing”); manifestation of neo-Baroque melancholy and nostalgia (“The Prussian Bride”); the aesthetics of excess, manifested in the physical and moral deformation of the characters or in mass scenes of violence in a theatrical fashion; the image of the library-labyrinth (“Nscdtchndsi”). The article also interprets the role of the Königsberg text as an object of the author’s melancholy and nostalgia, an element of the narrative linking of the author’s stories. The neo-Baroque elements are analyzed not only as a re-mythologization of the style and of the specific views of the epoch, but also from the point of view of their poetic function in the texts. In Buida’s texts these elements can perform as tools of author’s control over the reader’s reception, as well as strategies aimed to confront chaos and entropy. |
