Lady Macbeth of the Mtsensk District: About Leskov's Literariness1
Maya Kucherskaya Lady Macbeth of the Mtsensk district: About Leskov's Literariness1 The viper pours poison, with a pipette, right into the ear Radiating with spiritual beauty 2. 1. Introduction In 1921, in „Novejshaia russkaia poeziia” [Recent Russian Poetry], one of his early works, Roman Jakobson wrote, „The sub ject of literary scholarship is not literature in its totality but liter ariness, i. e., that which makes a given work a work of literature /.../ If literary scholarship wants to be scholarly, it must recognize ‘the [literary] device’ as its only ‘protagonist.’ The next main question is how the device is applied and motivated.” 3 © Maya Kucherskaya, 2010 © TSQ 33. Summer 2010 (http://www.utoronto.ca/tsq/) 1 I am most grateful to Mila Nazyrova, Olga Meerson and Ekaterina Schnit ke for providing their valuable feedback. 2 Льет стерва яд с пипетки прямо в ухо, Душевною блистая красотой. The oral variant of the song „Khodit Gamlet s pistoletom” (by Alexei Okhri menko, Sergei Kristi and Vladimir Shreiberg, 1950), published in: Антология бардовской песни. Сост. Р. Шипов — М.: Эксмо, 2006. The present variant is provided by Alexander Lifshits (The Library of MSU). 3 «Предметом науки о литературе является не литература, а литератур ность, т. е. то, что делает данное произведение литературным произведе нием. (…) Если наука о литературе хочет стать наукой, она принуждается признать „прием” своим единственным «героем». Далее основной во прос — вопрос о применении, оправдании приема.» (Якобсон Р., «Новей шая русская поэзия», Якобсон Р. Работы по поэтике: Переводы. М.: Про гресс, 1987. P. 275.) 261 The obvious polemical rigorism of the quoted passage, and the historical and cultural biases of Jakobson's essay, hardly compromise the role of the artistic device in a literary text. -

A welcome new translation of Leskov’s grand metaphysical romp, a hallmark of 19th-century Russian literature. Leskov (1831–1895) is less well-known in this country than his near-contemporaries Leo Tolstoy and Fyodor Dostoyevsky, and even if Anton Chekhov claimed him as a literary ancestor—and that’s saying something—Leskov’s masterpiece doesn’t often figure on reading lists. Pevear and Volokhonsky, late of War and Peace , Anna Karenina and Dr. Zhivago , may remedy that with this accessible translation, which does a good job of preserving some of Leskov’s well-known wordplay while not being pedantic. Pevear and Volokhonsky are known for preferring to use only English words in circulation at the -
ANIMAL IMAGERY in the WORKS of NIKOLAI LESKOV by MATTHEW A. SUTTON DISSERTATION Submitted in Partial Fu
OLD TRUTHS IN NEW SKINS: ANIMAL IMAGERY IN THE WORKS OF NIKOLAI LESKOV BY MATTHEW A. SUTTON DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Slavic Languages and Literatures in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2017 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Michael Finke, Co-Chair Associate Professor David Cooper, Co-Chair Associate Professor Valeria Sobol Associate Professor Eleonora Stoppino ABSTRACT Animals complicate everything. They are implicated in science, in theology; they change the course of human development in its technological, cultural, and many other aspects. Animals have often provided material for thinking about what it means to be human, since they have been harnessed by writers to generate symbolical codes, allegories, and associations. Animal bodies are physical and figurative bodies that populate the real world and fictive worlds and in both are often unnoticed. At the same time, they enable and define continued human existence not only in a physical sense but in a figurative sense, and attention to animals inevitably yields productive consideration of a wide range of questions. This thesis examines the multiple functions of animal imagery in the works of Leskov. In Nikolai Leskov’s fiction, the animal image acts as a point of convergence for questions of scientific, religious, and social content that engaged society in mid-nineteenth century Russia; these questions form the backdrop and sometimes the substance of Leskov’s literary works. Animal imagery serves multiple symbolic, interpretive, and affective functions in Leskov’s texts and I trace these functions in works in which they are most conspicuous.
