Vasilisa wears men’s clothing, rides horseback, is a good shot with a rifle and does everything in a ‘quite unmaidenly way’ so that most people think she is a man and call her Vasily Vasilyevich (a male version of her name) … ‘… all the more so because Vasilisa Vasilyevna was very fond of vodka, and this, as is well known, in entirely unbecoming to a maiden.’ One day King Barkhat meets Vasilisa while out hunting, and thinks she is a young man.

  • Between Linguistic Indecency and Religious Blasphemy
    religions Article Gogol’s “The Nose”: Between Linguistic Indecency and Religious Blasphemy Igor Pilshchikov 1,2 1 Department of Slavic, East European and Eurasian Languages and Cultures, University of California, Los Angeles, CA 90095, USA; [email protected] 2 School of Humanities, Tallinn University, 10120 Tallinn, Estonia Abstract: Focused on Nikolai Gogol’s absurdist tale, “The Nose” (1835), this article is an investiga- tion into the concealed representation of suppressed and marginalized libertine and anti-religious discourses in nineteenth-century Russian literature. The author identifies overlooked idiomatic phraseology, forgotten specificities of the Imperial hierarchy (the Table of Ranks), and allusions to religious customs and Christian rituals that would have been apparent to Gogol’s readers and shows how some were camouflaged to escape censorship in successive drafts of the work. The research builds on the approaches to Gogol’s language, imagery and plot developed earlier by the Russian Formalists, Tartu-Moscow semioticians, and a few other scholars, who revealed the latent obscenity of Gogol’s “rhinology” and the sacrilegious meaning of the tale’s very specific chronotope. The previous scholars’ observations are substantially supplemented by original findings. An integrated analysis of these aspects in their mutual relationship is required to understand what the telling details of the story reveal about Gogol’s religious and psychological crisis of the mid-1830s and to demonstrate how he aggregated indecent Shandyism, social satire, and religious blasphemy into a single quasi-oneiric narrative. Citation: Pilshchikov, Igor. 2021. Keywords: The Nose (tale); Gogol; religious crisis; sacrilege; blasphemy; linguistic indecency Gogol’s “The Nose”: Between Linguistic Indecency and Religious Blasphemy.

BIBLIOGRAPHY………………………………………………………60 iii Death Objectified, Life Affirmed: Mortality and Materialism in Russian Folktales Featuring Koschei the Deathless Koschei the Deathless, a stock villain of Russian folklore, is a powerful sorcerer who achieves immortality by physically hiding his death, which is treated as an object rather than an event. This project investigates the objectification of Koschei’s death as a product of cultural anxieties about the uncertainties of peasant life in the Late Tsarist period. The project has two parts, the first a literary analysis of the portrayal of Koschei the Deathless in early English translations of Russian folktales and their subsequent adaptations, and the second investigates how specific social factors (including literacy and mortality rates) may have influenced particular narrative attributes.
