Abstract:

A labyrinth for our time: The meta-story of the metropolis in Paul van Ostaijen’s grotesques Apart from poetry, Paul van Ostaijen also wrote grotesque prose. The grotesque shows an inverted world that is equally logical as the real world but governed by different norms and an upside-down morality. It is alienating and familiar at the same time. The grotesque texts reflect on the grand narratives of modernism. In this article, I focus on the image of the metropolis in three stories: De kudde van Claire, De gehouden hotelsleutel and De verloren huissleutel. Firstly, I define the concept of the g

Abstract:

In the article we focus on grotesque nature of Ilya Ehrenburg’s and Boris Pilnyak’s creative prose, viz. «Julio Jurenito» and «The Naked Year». These nov- els were written almost at the same time. They share commonality in issues and style. We compare these novels to trace how the both writers use grotesques in their works about Russian Revolution. Despite both Ehrenburg and Pilnyak sharing one technique, they realize it in a quite different manner. Ilya Ehrenburg finds grotesque in every human being. Thus, the world, where people live, act and communi

Abstract:

AbstractSarah Kane’s drama demonstrates modern fascination with the grotesque. In this study some aspects of the modern grotesque in Kane’s drama are discussed using some of Bakhtin’s, Kayser’s and McElroy’s findings to depict how modern grotesque represents the world as monstrous since although some critics have stressed the grotesque’s playful side, the moderns invested dread and fear into the concept of the grotesque. So the aim is to localize representative examples of the prime characteristics of the modern grotesque world and characters in Kane’s

Abstract:

This article explores the aesthetic of the grotesque in Lu Yang’s recent work Delusional Mandala (2015) and Delusional World (2020). I argue that the aesthetic of the grotesque envisioned in these two works becomes a radical tool for the artist’s deconstruction and dismantling of the socially and culturally sanctioned boundaries of corporeality and normativity. My approach to Lu Yang’s aesthetic of the grotesque is based on Sara Cohen Shabot’s theorization of grotesque philosophy and the grotesque body as well on the concept of faciality proposed by Deleuze and Guattari in A Thousand Plateaus

Abstract:

The author of the articles shows that the grotesque is one of the most interesting ways of diagnosing changes and crisis in the anthroposphere (as a continuation of thinking about the subject from the middle of the seventeenth century through to postmodernity). According to Thomas Mann, the grotesque is one the most active notions in contemporary art. Its productivity results from the subject’s tendency to self-fulﬁlment, self-cognition, and self-deﬁnition; it is an independent vision and position in the “me – the world”, “me – community” relations. The grotesque is a strongly philosophical pr

This article explores the poetics of the grotesque in the works of Nina Sadur, focusing on her dramatic collections “Chudnaya Baba” [Strange Woman] and “Obmorok” [Fainting], alongside a series of interviews and her writings on creativity. It is noted that the poetics of the grotesque aligns with the writer’s creative objective — stimulating individual sensuality and enhancing the aesthetic capacity to perceive the world and life through dramatic art. The analysis delves into rich grotesque imagery that disrupts cognitive inertia and reveals the hidden existence of multiple worlds. The symbolic

Following E. T. A. Hoffmann’s tradition, Velery Bryusov creates a special type of romantic the dual world based on the principle of mirror reflection of the real world. The dominance of the unreal world leads to the absorption of the main character. The problem of mechanisation of a life and a man in the series is manifested in the ten

L’interès d’aquesta investigació s’ha centrat en dos aspectes complementaris de l’obra de Joan Miró, del període de 1939 a 1945. Un és la producció artística i l’altre és el procés auto reflexiu. El període de la trajectòria vital i professional objecte d’anàlisi, el de major tensió emocional per a l’artista i la seva família, està marcat per inflexions significatives, però també per continuïtats. Miró fou capaç de superar l’opressió d’un ambient hostil gràcies a una severa auto disciplina en el treball, una recapitulació sobre el propi llenguatge artístic i un inèdit procés d’auto reflexió

Abstract THE grotesque is, as Osbert Burdett noted, “the invention of a form that does not exist in nature” (113). It is an artificial, human-animal hybrid that has been used throughout history and in virtually all parts of the world, in both horrific and benign forms, to symbolize the desire to avert the powers of evil and channel the forces of good (Sheridan and Ross 21). It also became Beardsley’s favorite vehicle for representing not only the disparate impulses of his own personality, but also what he took to be the paradoxical nature of life itself.

Thanks to the content, to the form of his plays and to the technique used, I.L. Caragiale is considered one of the precursors of the absurd theater and one of the creators of the modern concept of theater because he abandoned the traditional romantic forms of a literary theater in favor of a theatrical theater, revising the original constitutive elements of dramatic art: movement, pantomime, mimicry, puppetry, masks, the plastic element, the play of lights and shadows, the theatrical word.
