    Theamirani Abrek inXIV-XV. Chechen Folklore2006 37 Rebecca Gould The Abrek in Chechen Folklore In his formative monograph on abrechestvo, Yuri Botiakov argues that the abrek exists on the threshold dividing death from life.1 He counter poses this view with Russian and Soviet ethnography’s traditional reading of abrechestvo, which has typically seen it simply as an exalted form of robbery. Botiakov asks his readers, “Is it correct to see ‘professional robbery’ as the main idea, which united abreks in all the various incarnations of this social institution?” (9) and then works towards a more nuanced theory of abrechestvo, using source texts which dwell on the ways on which the classic abrek transcends the “bandit” moniker. For Botiakov, the mark of the abrek is his liminal nature: “[the abrek] loses the status of a living person, but he cannot attain the status of the dead, and therefore inhabits the border realm” (135). In order for the abrek to survive “he has to exchange his human nature for an alien one” (133). Examples of the alien or uncanny nature of the abrek are amply found in the biography of the Chechen abrek Zelimkhan, including his magical feat of escaping from a cave when he was surrounded by Russian officers2 after announcing theatrically that only after he was presented with “a document from the tsar promising that the persecution of the innocent would cease and that all those exiled on my account will be freed”3 would he surrender. Botiakov’s underscoring of the abrek as a magical creature who belongs neither entirely to the world of the dead or of the living allows us to reach beyond a merely historical understanding of the abrek’s role in Caucasian society.

Cyrillic has been added to the first occurrence of a simplified Russian pronunciation of a word. For example togrib , cyrillic is added in parenthesis - (гриб). 2. In chapter I. Mushrooms and the Russians, where authors mention about folk names for mushrooms, actual Latin name has been found and inserted into square brackets (but beside Appendix II where authors do this by themselves) for most of this names. Thus the name originally presented as volnushki will be volnushki (волнушки) [Lactarius torminosus]. 3. Footnotes are numbered continuously, contrary to original version where footnote number starts from 1 on each page. 4. Latin names have been italicized. 5. Some latin synonyms are actuallized beneath plates, eg. Psalliota campestris Fr. ex L. has in description additionaly [Agaricus campestris (Bull.)]. 6. Polish official names for mushrooms have been added beneath plates. 7. Couple of notes have been added and labeled as Note to this edition of the book on Psilosophy. 8.

    Ecological Ideologies of Modernity and Their Temporal-Spatial Representations in Canadian, Russian, and Polish Literatures of the Twentieth Century by Sergiy Yakovenko A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Comparative Literature University of Alberta © Sergiy Yakovenko, 2015 ii Abstract The dissertation focuses on the temporal-spatial representations of the ecological ideologies of modernity in the writings of Canadian authors Georges Bugnet, Sheila Watson, and Howard O’Hagan, Russian authors Andrei Bitov and Tatiana Tolstaia, and Polish author Czesław Miłosz. The concept of ecology is used in a broader sense, based on its etymology of “dwelling-saying,” whereby the ecological ideologies of modernity are examined as both explicitly stated and implied in the narratives and descriptions, reflections and beliefs regarding the proper dwelling place of humans, their ethos. Temporal-spatial unity, or “chronotope” in Mikhail Bakhtin’s theory, is posited as the main principle of artistic organization of the ecologically relevant narratives. Chronotope sustains the works’ ecological and ecomimetic field within its given ideological and artistic perspectives (optical, mythological, or philosophical) and points to a wide range of artistic representations. Some of these representations include the paradisiac chronotope of origin fantasies, the cyclic time of nature and of the mythologized construction of natural humans, the places of the meeting of pre-modernity and modernity, along with the symbolism of elements and landscape formations. The eco-ideological stances and perspectives assumed by particular characters, narrators, or by ekphrastic descriptions are unraveled in connection with identified effects of defamiliarization, inherent to the discussed writings that make ecology as human dwelling-saying their key inquiry.
