- W329585959 abstract "v Kolomne (known hereafter as Domik), Pushkin's narrative poem of 1833, is connected with the shift in the poet's poetics from his early period to the post-1830s. In his article Put Pushkina k proze, Boris Eikhenbaum describes some features of this shift, especially Pushkin's own and other contemporary writers' changed attitudes toward lyric poetry and their awakening interest in developing a Russian literary language that could be used in fictional prose genres. (1) Similar features of a shift in poetics can be seen in characterization and plot. For example, during the 1830s, Pushkin depicted a new kind of literary hero not identified with the Romantic poet, set his stories and poems in urban locations, and substituted what one would refer to as the familiar and quotidian for the former exotic themes and heroic actions. A description of these changes can be found in studies by Vladislav Khodasevich, Boris Tomashevskii, V. Vatsuro, and Brian Horowitz. (2) These scholars note that Pushkin's new aesthetics of the 1830s features attacks against the past, including mockery of earlier Romantic attitudes and poetic conventions, such as the intimate relationship between author and reader. In my analysis of Domik, I tie my argument to Eikhenbaum's claim that [TEXT NOT REPRODUCIBLE IN ASCII] Like Eikhenbaum, I consider generic and poetic deformations in Domik as indicative of a new aesthetics of the 1830s. In this context Domik is fascinating because, while Pushkin employs many of the devices of his earlier works, he gives them a negative assessment. Furthermore, Pushkin provides inter-textual contexts for the poem in which he refers to other works of Russian and European literature, but these references are also subordinated to the general ideological and aesthetic reevaluation that I will outline below. My reading of Domik is predicated on the acknowledgement of preexisting literary conventions and a social and literary background against which the poem should be read. The poem presupposes an idea of the Romantic poet consciously cultivated by Pushkin. This image was produced by Pushkin starting in his earliest works and was fostered by a conventional relationship between author and reader. In such works as Bakhchisaraiskii fontan, Tsygany, and Pushkin's early lyric poetry readers expected to be provided with semantically rich biographical allusions that provided the key to the poem's meaning. Therefore, readers were equipped with a pre-existing awareness of the poet's literary oeuvre, gossip about the poet, and aspects of his real--as opposed to fictional--biography. (4) In this paradigm the poet generates meaning by juxtaposing the meanings in the text with references to other texts and material from life experience he shares with readers. In fact, according to Iurii Lotman, at least until the mid-1820s readers explicated Pushkin's lyric poems by seeking biographical information from the poet's private letters. (5) Although Pushkin extensively explored other genres besides lyric poetry during the second half of the 1820s, he did not fully repudiate the author-reader relationship cultivated earlier. According to D. Blagoi, Pushkin's concern with reader expectations was apparently so strong that even in 1828 he added the lyric Dedication to Poltava in order to give readers a biographical subtext for the poem. (6) It is not in itself a revelation that Pushkin masterfully placed within his texts hints about how readers should read Domik and how different kinds of readings lead to differing interpretations. In fact, it could be argued that the poem's genre, the mock epic, deflates any serious theme. (7) Nevertheless, such a claim does not explain the ambiguity of the poem. After all, some mock epics are more or less clear in their purpose, for example Apuleius' The Golden Ass or Chateaubriand's Vaivert. What makes Domik extraordinary is the way that Pushkin deflates various readings, offering possibilities, but confirming none. …" @default.
