Художественные реалии в ранних рассказах Виктора Пелевина

Аннотация

The purpose of the article is to identify the functions of the “alien word” in the process of creating artistic reality as a part of the literary strategy in Victor Pelevin’s stories “The Crystal World” and “Vera Pavlovna’s Ninth Dream”. Scientific novelty of the study lies in the fact that V. Pelevin’s creative work of the 1990s is barely represented in scientific literature from the perspective of constructing artistic reality in the context of postmodernism. The attained results have demonstrated that V. Pelevin’s early stories are within the unconventional approach to constructing artistic reality, which consists in the synthesis of “objective” and “subjective” realia attributable either to the specifics of a character’s consciousness or to some external force placing these realia at the level of irreality, which is new to the Russian literature.
