INTERMEDIAL ASPECTS OF THE POETICS OF V. EROFEEV’S POEM “MOSCOW – PETUSHKI”

Abstract

The aim of the study is to specify the ways and forms of V. Erofeev’s interaction with intermedial inclusions within the poem “Moscow – Petushki”. The article examines the integrative intermedial elements of the text, relating to different areas of communication, including cinema and mass media. Special attention is paid to the parodying of the Soviet “ritual” discourse. The scientific novelty of the article consists in creating a classification of intermedial incorporation in “Moscow – Petushki” based on their forms and purposes of inclusion. In the allocation functional groups of intermedial integrations, such aspects as the influence of borrowings on the semantic context of the work, their strengthening of the suggestive power of the text, and the deepening of the psychologism of the characters are taken into account. The research reveals a large number of ways of intermedial interactions in V. Erofeev’s poem, including integrative, combinative and synthetic forms of transformation of a heterologous text. The peculiarities of these integrations largely determine the author’s idiostyle. Prospects for further research lie not only in the possibility of expanding the method of intermedial discourse analysis within the body of V. Erofeev’s work, but also in the possibility of a comparative analysis of works of modern Russian literature with “Moscow – Petushki”, which fully reflects the variety of forms and methods of intermediality.
