    The Figured Author: Authorial Cameos in Post-Romantic Russian Literature Anna Dvigubski Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2012 © 2012 Anna Dvigubski All rights reserved ABSTRACT The Figured Author: Authorial Cameos in Post-Romantic Russian Literature Anna Dvigubski This dissertation examines representations of authorship in Russian literature from a number of perspectives, including the specific Russian cultural context as well as the broader discourses of romanticism, autobiography, and narrative theory. My main focus is a narrative device I call “the figured author,” that is, a background character in whom the reader may recognize the author of the work. I analyze the significance of the figured author in the works of several Russian nineteenth- and twentieth- century authors in an attempt to understand the influence of culture and literary tradition on the way Russian writers view and portray authorship and the self. The four chapters of my dissertation analyze the significance of the figured author in the following works: 1) Pushkin's Eugene Onegin and Gogol's Dead Souls; 2) Chekhov's “Ariadna”; 3) Bulgakov's “Morphine”; 4) Nabokov's The Gift. In the Conclusion, I offer brief readings of Kharms’s “The Old Woman” and “A Fairy Tale” and Zoshchenko’s Youth Restored. One feature in particular stands out when examining these works in the Russian context: from Pushkin to Nabokov and Kharms, the “I” of the figured author gradually recedes further into the margins of narrative, until this figure becomes a third-person presence, a “he.” Such a deflation of the authorial “I” can be seen as symptomatic of the heightened self-consciousness of Russian culture, and its literature in particular.

    Cultural Experimentation as Regulatory Mechanism in Response to Events of War and Revolution in Russia (1914-1940) Anita Tárnai Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Anita Tárnai All rights reserved ABSTRACT Cultural Experimentation as Regulatory Mechanism in Response to Events of War and Revolution in Russia (1914-1940) Anita Tárnai From 1914 to 1940 Russia lived through a series of traumatic events: World War I, the Bolshevik revolution, the Civil War, famine, and the Bolshevik and subsequently Stalinist terror. These events precipitated and facilitated a complete breakdown of the status quo associated with the tsarist regime and led to the emergence and eventual pervasive presence of a culture of violence propagated by the Bolshevik regime. This dissertation explores how the ongoing exposure to trauma impaired ordinary perception and everyday language use, which, in turn, informed literary language use in the writings of Viktor Shklovsky, the prominent Formalist theoretician, and of the avant-garde writer, Daniil Kharms. While trauma studies usually focus on the reconstructive and redeeming features of trauma narratives, I invite readers to explore the structural features of literary language and how these features parallel mechanisms of cognitive processing, established by medical research, that take place in the mind affected by traumatic encounters. Central to my analysis are Shklovsky’s memoir A Sentimental Journey and his early articles on the theory of prose “Art as Device” and “The Relationship between Devices of Plot Construction and General Devices of Style” and Daniil Karms’s theoretical writings on the concepts of “nothingness,” “circle,” and “zero,” and his prose work written in the 1930s.

Dissertation Advisor: Professor Stephanie Sandler Ainsley Elizabeth Morse Detki v kletke: The Childlike Aesthetic in Soviet Children’s Literature and Unofficial Poetry Abstract Since its inception in 1918, Soviet children’s literature was acclaimed as innovative and exciting, often in contrast to other official Soviet literary production. Indeed, avant-garde artists worked in this genre for the entire Soviet period, although they had fallen out of official favor by the 1930s. This dissertation explores the relationship between the childlike aesthetic as expressed in Soviet children’s literature, the early Russian avant-garde and later post-war unofficial poetry.

Calling his wife from a telephone owned by Leo Tolstoy, he demanded that she fulfill his prophecy. This she did, and on that day foretold, Daniil Kharms was born. Overture Ivan over the Overture: By the time he came of age, the First World War and Russian revolution had swept away the world his father knew, and had replaced that world with one in which there was great hardship, a terrible time of hunger and fear, from enemies foreign and domestic, to wit, (1) Stalin’s great political purges in which at least a thousand were shot each day and (2) the invasion by Germany which killed millions more.

MacFadyen, Co-Chair Professor Kathleen L. Komar, Co-Chair Many postcolonial scholars have questioned the ethics of postmodern cultural production. Critics have labeled postmodernism a conceptual dead end – a disempowering aesthetic that does not offer a theory of agency in response to the workings of empire. This dissertation enters the conversation about the political alignment of postmodernism through a comparative study of postcommunist writing in Armenia and Russia, where the debates about the implications and usefulness of postmodernism have been equally charged. This project introduces the directions in which postcommunist postmodernisms developed in Armenia and

  • AS IT TURNED out by Dmitry Golynko Translated from the Russian by Eugene Ostashevsky, with Rebecca Bella and Simona Schneider
    AS IT TURNED OUT by Dmitry Golynko Translated from the Russian by Eugene Ostashevsky, with Rebecca Bella and Simona Schneider Ugly Duckling Presse: Eastern European Poets Series #17 Poetry, $15, ISBN# 978-1-933254-36-4 168 pp, perfect-bound Publication date: November 1, 2008 Dmitry Golynko’s first English-language release, As It Turned Out, features both earlier and more current poetry, drawing on the author’s three books as well as unpublished materials. Hold it! How have we arrived at such a moment that could produce Dmitry Golynko’s poetry? How has Soviet history remade itself, faster than dial-up, in the years that lead up to these wide open poems that document the very public culture it runs with? —Robert Fitterman Sometimes life can feel a little too lived. Witness here the “shampooski,” the “the halfwit toastmaster,” the “déjà vengeance.” Golynko not only takes on, but takes in, this problem, as he responds to a variety of Russias—whether the lush monumentality or the ornate quotidian, his vocabularies mirror while evolving, resemble while describing. —Rod Smith A hard coming of age during the collapse of the Soviet system sensitized Golynko’s ear to how language mutates in response to political and social change. The multilevel puns that saturated his writing in the 1990s fused the brand-consciousness of mass-market culture with recondite play of literary allusions. Covered in such puns and psychologically stylized, his narratives exuded the sense of unreality of life so characteristic of the Yeltsin era. In the 2000s, a new obsession with documenting how regular Russians speak and think led him to appropriate the latest from the most varied linguistic strata: bureaucrat-ese, mafia slang, blogspeak, technical jargon, teenage cant.
