Abstract:
This article is dedicated to examination of the process of conception of satire in Yakut literature. The object of this research is the origin and evolution of satire in Yakut poetry. The subject is the satirical compositions of the founders of Yakut literature A. E. Kulakovsky and P. A. Oyunsky. The goal consists in determination of the role of the first writers in conception and development of satire. Yakut literary studies feature research dedicated to particular authors and works, rather than satire as a whole. Therefore, the relevance of this article lies in the holistic review of satire. The theoretical-methodological framework is comprised of the cultural-historical method, within the framework of which the conception of satire is considered a product of social life and cultural-historical conditions of Yakutia of the early XX century. The work also employs the specific-historical and comparative-typological methods of research. The scientific novelty is defined by the fact that the Yakut literary studies currently do not have a comprehensive and systemic research of satirical genre in national poetry. It is established that the pioneer satire in Yakut literature is the founder of Yakut literature A. E. Kulakovsky, who devoted his works to harsh criticism of the conservative traditions of patriarchal-feudal society, rapacity and inhumanity of the new capitalist relations. Kulakovsky was first to create gallery of the satirical portraits of social nature, such as socially classified images of stingy wealthy man, drunken bourgeois, etc. In the 1920s, the pioneer of Yakut Soviet literature P. A. Oyunsky composed works that of socially charged nature. The poet introduced the following new genres into Yakut literature: fable, pamphlet, and parody. Their works surged public thought and marked the birth of satirical genres in Yakut poetry.

The paper delves into the complexities of translating metaphors in Chinese satirical literature, emphasizing the cultural and linguistic nuances involved. It highlights the importance of metaphors in expressing satire and the challenges posed by cultural differences between Chinese and English. The paper advocates for a foreignization translation approach to preserve the original’s cultural essence and satirical tone, balancing it with explanations to aid understanding in the target language. This method ensures the retention of literary value while facilitating cross-cultural dialogue and appreciation of the source culture’s literary aesthetics.

Abstract:
This article examines the problem of folklore and literature based on the material of the Mari national literature of the first third of the twentieth century. The subject of the study is the role of folklore traditions in the formation of the genre of the satirical novel. The influence of folklore images-characters, genres of oral folk art (fairy tale, proverb, saying, etc.), their poetics and stylistics on the process of formation of Mari national literature, on the birth of the first Mari satirical novel – N. V. Ignatiev's novel "Savik" is shown. In such a scientific and theoretical aspect, this work of Mari literature is being studied in regional and domestic literary studies for the first time. The research method is structural and semantic, which allows to see the comic component of a satirical novel at the level of both its genre content and its poetics. The article proves that it is the folklore genre and figurative intertext that contributes to the disclosure of the satirical problems of the novel "Savik"; the main satirical techniques and means in it are sarcasm, specific nomination of characters ("talking names"), "sounding" toponymy, parody, comic situation, exaggeration, specific speech techniques, etc., many of which they have a folklore basis. They play an essential role in the creation of a literary and artistic text, are integral components of its poetics and stylistics, are closely related to the author's ideas, the time and space depicted, the essence of the images created.

Abstract:
This study investigates the use of hyperbole as a satirical device in English-language science fiction, examining its stylistic conveyance and translation into Russian. Employing linguo-stylistic analysis, translation analysis, and functional-linguistic component examination, various definitions of hyperbole are explored. The results indicate that hyperbole serves as an artistic tool for deliberate exaggeration, capturing the reader’s attention and emphasizing the author’s stance. Focusing on Harry Harrison’s science fiction novel “Bill, the Galactic Hero” and its two translations by V. P. Kovalevsky, the research scrutinizes hyperbole’s contribution to satirical effects and identifies two types of hyperbolic exaggerations: contextual and hidden. Hidden hyperbole is further expressed through stylistic contrast and enumeration. In the Russian translations, the satirical effect is largely preserved, albeit with some losses. The study underscores the significance of hyperbole in engaging readers’ critical thinking and directing their focus towards real-world issues within the science fiction narrative. For professional translators, recognizing and conveying hyperbole is crucial in accurately representing the author’s intended meaning.

Abstract:
Systems of Order: The satirical novels of Evelyn Waugh is a study of Evelyn Waugh’s satire. It offers a contextual reading of eleven works by Waugh, presenting revisionist readings of familiar novels and according attention to previously neglected works. It aims to sketch out the main features of Waugh’s satire, including Waugh’s lexis and the use of certain key images and motifs. Comparative analysis of Waugh’s satirical novels with works by contemporary writers such as Clough Williams-Ellis, Wyndham Lewis, Stella Gibbons and T.S. Eliot brings into sharp relief the techniques and targets of Waugh’s satire. ¶ This thesis argues that despite Waugh’s tongue-in-cheek denial of satire’s efficacy in a complacent modern world, he did indeed write satire of a peculiarly twentieth century kind. Waugh’s apparently anarchic novels reflect, behind the detached insouciance of their narrators, the moral standards which the novels ostensibly claim are absent in the modern world. ¶ In Waugh’s writing, satire is effected through the creation of systems of literary order. The structure and patterning of his novels, and his masterful use of the rhetorical techniques of satire, mete out punishment on a formal level. Waugh’s satirical novels dramatize the tension between truth, order and civilization, and their oppositions, disorder and barbarism. Systems of Order suggests that from the very first, Waugh’s satiric project aimed toward the repudiation of modern disorder.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis reconstructs the genre of urban satirical pamphleteering. It contends that the pamphlets of Robert Greene, Thomas Nashe, Thomas Dekker, Thomas Middleton, and Barnaby Rich are stylistically and generically akin. Writing in a relatively undefined form, these pamphleteers share an interest in describing contemporary London, and employ an experimental style characterised by its satirical energy. In addition, they negotiate a series of tensions between profitability and play. In the early modern period, ‘profit' was variously conceived as financial, moral, or rooted in public service. Pamphleteers attempted to reconcile these senses of profitability. At the same time, they produced playful works that are self-consciously mocking, that incorporate alternative perspectives, and that are generically hybrid. To varying degrees, urban satirical pamphlets can be defined in relation to the concepts of profitability and play. Chapter One introduces the concept of moral profitability through an examination of Elizabethan moralistic pamphlets. In particular, it analyses the anxious response to profitability contained in Philip Stubbes's Anatomie of Abuses (1583). Chapter Two argues that Greene disrupted appeals to totalising profitability, and instead demonstrated the alternative potential of play. Chapter Three examines Nashe's notoriously evasive pamphlets, contending that he embraced play in response to the potential profitlessness of pamphleteering. Chapter Four argues that although Dekker and Middleton rejected absolutist notions of profitability, their pamphlets redirect stylistic play towards compassionate social commentary. Finally, Chapter Five explores Rich's relocation of moralistic conventions in pamphlets that are presented as both honest and mocking. Taken as a whole, this thesis re-evaluates the style and genre of urban satirical pamphleteering. It reveals that this frequently overlooked literary form was deeply invested in defining and critiquing the purpose of literature.

Abstract:
Este trabalho visa à análise das poesias eróticas e satíricas de Manuel Maria Barbosa du Bocage e de sua repercussão na sociedade portuguesa do século XVIII. A ironia, por definição, propõe a inversão de enunciados, negando o contrário daquilo que se afirma ou vice-versa. Mas, tal recurso, largamente empregado pelo Poeta, extrapola a mera função de figura de pensamento, uma vez que, potencializando um poderoso arsenal crítico, propicia a construção de um discurso desestabilizador, cuja intenção é colocar em xeque a ideologia oficial. A lírica bocagiana, em sua vertente erótica e satírica, vale-se do deboche, do escracho ou da sátira desbocada para colocar às claras a distinção entre essência e aparência, em uma sociedade cuja moral se constrói a partir das crenças religiosas nem sempre professadas, quer pelo corpo social como um todo, quer pelo clero, guardião desta moral. Examinaremos, neste trabalho, os modos de representação discursiva inscritos nesta poesia. Bocage ultrapassou as fronteiras de seu tempo em poemas cuja licenciosidade, muitas vezes, não esconde uma ponta de amargura e sofrimento. Dividido entre dois mundos: o árcade, sob o signo da razão, constituído de regras rígidas; e o romântico, regido pela paixão, Elmano não esconde o desconcerto, que procura na clandestinidade a via possível para a expansão de um espírito revoltado
This work aims at the analysis of the erotic and satirical poetry of Manuel Maria Barbosa du Bocage and its impact on portuguese society of the eighteenth century. The irony, by definition, suggests a reversal of statements denying the opposite of what is stated or vice versa. But such a feature, widely used by Poet, overcomes the mere function of figure of thought, since, leveraging a powerful critical arsenal, allows the construction of a destabilizing discourse, intended to checkmate the official ideology. The bocagiana lyrical, satirical and erotic in their shed, it is debauchery, the escrache or foul-mouthed satire to put the clear distinction between essence and appearance, in a society whose moral is built from the religious beliefs do not always professed, either by the social body as a whole, either by the clergy, this moral guardian. Examine in this work, inscribed discursive modes of representation in this poetry. Bocage beyond the borders of their time in poems whose licentiousness often does not hide a hint of bitterness and suffering. Divided between two worlds: the arcade, under the sign of reason, consists of rigid rules; and the romantic, governed by passion, Elmano does not hide the bewilderment, looking in hiding the possible route to the expansion of an angry spirit

Full text
Abstract:
The subject of this doctoral study is the satirical figure known as the ‘galaunt’, as depicted in English literature and visual art c.1380–c.1550. It combines close textual analysis with investigation of established youth tropes, contemporaneous material culture, and socio-political concerns. It begins by establishing the breadth of the galaunt corpus and the figure’s significance, before tracing the etymology of galaunt and the cultural antecedents of the late medieval tradition in order to establish its hitherto unidentified Classical origins. The study goes on to explore the fundamental aspects of the galaunt’s semiotic makeup: youth; licentiousness; sartorial extravagance; and problematic masculinity. Despite the cultural significance of the late medieval galaunt, it has received little scholarly attention and the true significance of the figure’s role as Wayward Youth is yet to be established. This doctoral thesis moves away from previous scholarship, which has interpreted the figure as an instance of social-mobility discourse, and instead unravels the tradition’s complex conflation of established youth stereotypes and socio-political concerns to reposition the galaunt as a Vice figure symbolising errant youth. The thesis argues for a reappraisal of the significance of youth to late medieval social discourses, particularly in regard to questions of masculinity and status.

Full text
Abstract:
This dissertation analyzes a typically overlooked novel within the corpus of post-9/11 fiction studies, Jess Walter’s The Zero (2006), and puts forward some hypotheses for this under-examination. It suggests that the debates that arose in the United States in the wake of 9/11—regarding the status of fiction in the face of tragedy, the theses about the demise of irony and satire, the high expectations put on canonical authors to give meaning to the event, and standardized interpretations of what a “good 9/11 novel” should be—all contributed to construct readings of The Zero that fell within the somewhat prescriptive approaches established by the first wave of post-9/11 fiction studies, and thus overlooked the subversive potential of Walter's novel. While recent academic output is starting to explore The Zero in innovative ways, early reception of the novel failed to examine it conceptually and formally, favoring as it did a trauma studies approach that resulted in a bland analysis of the discursive exploration that the novel carries out. On the other hand, the novel’s use of satirical humor has been mostly ignored, and this is partly explained by the currency of outdated theoretical conceptions of what constitutes a satirical novel. Therefore, this dissertation carries out a revision of the theoretical corpus on narrative satire and proposes its renewal through the theories of carnivalization of Mikhail Bakhtin. Approaching the novel through the notions of satirical carnival, dialogism, and intertextuality reveals how satire is a very effective way of exploring and questioning the discursive apparatus that mobilized in the United States after the attacks. Such is the object of the novel, the interaction with, the representation and the eventual subversion of a nationalist discourse that was underpinned by its appeal to foundational myths and cultural themes and that was highly accepted by the general population, which allowed the Bush administration to respond to the attacks in military terms and to suspend certain rights and freedoms on the domestic front, under the premise of promoting security. This dissertation seeks to demonstrate how satire understood this way is especially suited for constructing a dialogical, polyphonic and inquisitive narrative that not only questions but also dialogues with the American nation after 9/11.
La presente tesis explora una novela poco estudiada del corpus de ficción post-11-S, The Zero (2006), de Jess Walter, y propone algunas hipótesis que puedan explicar esta falta de atención. Se sugiere que los debates que se originaron en los Estados Unidos tras el 11-S—respecto al estatus de la ficción frente a la tragedia, la supuesta falta de adecuación del humor satírico e irónico para explicarla, las grandes expectativas depositadas en los autores canónicos para que dieran sentido al hecho, y las interpretaciones un tanto prescriptivas y normativas por parte del campo de los “post- 9/11 fiction studies”—contribuyeron a determinar ciertas lecturas de The Zero dentro de los parámetros establecidos por la primera ola de ficción post-11-S, pasando por alto el potencial subversivo de la novela de Walter. La recepción temprana de la novela ha tendido a desatender el análisis formal y conceptual de The Zero al favorecer una aproximación desde los estudios del trauma que resulta en un análisis insustancial de la exploración discursiva que la novela lleva a cabo. Por otra parte, se ha ignorado casi por completo su uso del humor satírico, y ello en parte se explica por ciertas concepciones teóricas un tanto parciales y anticuadas sobre qué es una novela satírica. Por lo tanto, la tesis lleva a cabo una revisión del corpus teórico sobre la sátira narrativa y propone su renovación a través de las teorías de carnivalización de Mikhail Bakhtin. La aproximación a la novela desde las nociones de carnaval satírico, dialogismo, e intertextualidad revela como la sátira es un modo muy efectivo de explorar y cuestionar el aparato discursivo que se movilizó en Estados Unidos tras los atentados. Tal es el objeto de la novela, la interacción con, representación y eventual subversión de un discurso nacionalista que se sostuvo por la apelación a mitos fundacionales y temas culturales de alta aceptación entre la población, lo cual permitió una respuesta militar y el abandono de ciertas libertades en el frente doméstico con el fin de garantizar la seguridad. La tesis busca demostrar como la sátira entendida de este modo es especialmente idónea para construir un relato dialógico, polifónico e inquisidor que no solo cuestione sino que dialogue con la nación estadounidense tras el 11-S.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis proposes a critical study of the theoretical framework of Urinetown, asking the question of whether or not the show is truly a “Brechtian musical,” utilizing the tenets and beliefs of Bertolt Brecht. Set in a quirky, Gotham-like town where you have “to pay to pee” due to a severe drought, Urinetown follows a cast of absurdist characters as they navigate a society plagued by the perils of big business, ecological devastation, and the inequalities of capitalism. While the show appears to make a relevant social commentary, supporting a righteous rebellion to overthrow the evil Urine Good Company, in the end, by proving that revolution does not always succeed, writers, Kotis and Hollman invalidate these commentaries, proving that despite its Brechtian appearance, the show in its textual form is much more simply a comedic parody. However, Pomona College’s production, in which I played Hope Cladwell, takes on a much more severe tone, creating legitimate commentary by replacing many of the comedic, two-dimensional characters with living breathing, realities. In a text traditionally lacking authenticity, I approached Hope Cladwell with the intention of finding strength and satire in an otherwise vapid character.

Abstract:
Os Testamentos Carnavalescos recolhidos em aldeias das faldas oeste da Serra do Montemuro, situada no norte de Portugal, são textos produzidos por rapazes e raparigas em processo ritual de Carnaval. Nesta dissertação é analisada uma amostra desses textos. Estes textos inserem-se numa longa tradição de discurso testamentário satírico cujas raízes se situam no século IV e na Idade Média. Esta dissertação mostra como essa tradição testamentária satírica vem até aos nossos dias, mantendo e exprimindo, de várias formas, o significado de inversão carnavalesca que põe o mundo às avessas e desrespeita jocosamente normas e hierarquias sociais. As características jocosas concretizam-se nos textos analisados, especialmente nos testamentos carnavalescos de compadres e comadres, em que os rapazes (compadres) e as raparigas (comadres) criticam os comportamentos e características dos membros do grupo oposto. A ironia exprime-se na linguagem usada para dar forma testamentária às críticas e suscitar o riso comunitário; Abstract: The Carnivalesque Testaments, which were collected in some villages of the westernsides of Montemuro Mountains, in the north of Portugal, are texts produced by boys and girls in a Carnival ritual process. In this dissertation a sample of these texts is analysed. These texts belong to a long tradition of satyrical testamental speech the roots of which are placed in the 4th century and in the Medieval Age. As this dissertation shows, this satyrical testamental tradition have come until our days keeping and expressing, by several ways, the significance of a carnivalesque inversion that turns the world upside down and jestingly disrespects social norms and hierarchies. The jocose characteristics become effective in the analysed texts, especially in the carnivalesque testaments of cronies (“compadres” and “comadres”), as the boys (“compadres”) and the girls (“comadres”) criticize the behaviours and characteristics of the members of the opposite group. The irony is expressed by the words that are used to give a testamental form to the censures and mockeries to make the community laugh ; Résumé: Les Testaments Carnavalesques recueillis en quelques villages des versants d’ouest de la Chaîne de montagnes Montemuro, au nord du Portugal, sont des textes produits par des jeunes hommes et par des jeunes filles dans un processus rituel de Carnaval. Dans cette dissertation est analysé un échantillon de ces textes. Ces textes s’insèrent dans une longue tradition de discours testamentaire satirique qui a ses racines au IVème siècle et au Moyen-Âge. Cette dissertation fait voir comment cette tradition testamentaire satirique arrive jusqu’à nos jours tout en conservant et en exprimant le sens d’inversion carnavalesque qui met le monde à l’envers et se moque des normes et des hiérarchies sociales. Les caractéristiques plaisantes se manifestent dans les textes analysés, notamment dans les testaments carnavalesques de compères et de commères, où les jeunes hommes (les compères) et les jeunes filles (les commères) critiquent les conduites et les caractéristiques des membres de l’autre groupe. L’ironie est exprimée par le langage utilisé pour donner une forme testamentaire aux critiques et provoquer le rire de la communauté.

Abstract:
AbstractIn the Western imaginary, the “south seas” of the Pacific Ocean has always been a speculative space on which both desires and fears are projected. Western images of fantastical, utopian spaces and exotic species ripe for conquest and capitalist extraction have left long legacies, that today continue to impact on issues of land ownership, indigenous agency, and response to ecological devastation. The conceptualization of the “south seas” in Britain’s first financial crisis, the 1720 south sea Bubble and its associated satirical fiction, produced a dominant, overdetermined imaginary of the Pacific that masked its real financial and economic motivations. As this paper’s analysis of the 2017 BBC television series Taboo argues, this imaginary stubbornly remains 300 years later, enabling unbound speculative investment, extraction, and concealment that are damaging the world economy through offshore finance, and global ecology through reckless pillaging of natural resources.

Abstract:
AbstractThis chapter reveals that the cultural association of cosmetic prostheses with ageing stems, at least in part, from satirical sources that paradoxically both bulwark and mock the hegemony of physical wholeness and youth. Emphasizing the extent to which preferences for youth were intertwined with demands for physical completeness, this chapter exposes how the dominance of these two physical states was undermined by stories that either ridicule the process of concealment for elderly users or present unlikely prostheticized heroes in unconventional ways. The chapter draws from genres such as the Gothic, sensation fiction, and imperial adventure fiction. It argues that, despite their differences, the depictions of ageing prosthesis users selected challenge the dominance of physical wholeness/youth by laughing at the absurd results that these demands effected.

Abstract:
The article deals with satirical tendencies in Swedish literature and cinema of the end of the 20th — beginning of the 21st century. On the example of the book by C.-J. Vallgren “This is for you for a brochure, Mr. Bachmann” and R. Östlund’s paintings “Turist” (“Force Majeure”), “Voluntarily-compulsory”, “The Square” and “Triangle of Sadness”, the main problems of Swedish society are analyzed, which are becoming pan-European scale. The paper concludes that both authors consider the most significant problems to be the disappearance of independent thinking, the distortion of ethical principles, the fear of losing personal well-being against the backdrop of growing ethnic and class contradictions in Europe, indicating the beginning of a new socio-political stage in society. Comprehending European double standards, hypocrisy, ostentatious political correctness, the authors testify that European society is turning into a refined capitalist minority that has lost its main value orientation — Christian humanism. The poetics of the literary and cinematographic works of Vallgren and Östlund differ significantly from the methods of their predecessors: modern authors abandon the satirical principles of secondary convention, allowing themselves only slight exaggeration. This testifies to the desire for journalism, documentary depiction, the movement from fiction to non-fiction, to the understanding of the historical context and socio-political perspective.

Abstract:
The article explores the role and the place of Utopia and Dystopia in Victor Pelevin's novels. Traditions of “classical dystopia” in his novels disclosed, at the same time the presence of a Meta-genre modification observed. The novels may hardly attributed either to Utopia or to Dystopia in “pure form”. Actually, they are balancing in a space where a parody of Soviet Utopia coexists with a satirical depiction of bourgeois consumer Utopianism. The creative method of the writer reveals a special ideological complex of Distopianism in the absence of “canonical” samples of the Meta-genre. Principles of postmodern aesthetics bring new features to the concept of the Meta-genre. Pelevin's work exists in the range between private Dystopias (like alchemical marriage of the West and the East) and total Dystopianism, which perceives the world as a universal illusion. Illusion is not only possible (or impossible) social harmony, but the World in general as well. From this point of view, the image of Emptiness is interpreted because of mutual annihilation of two ideological vectors of the novel.

Abstract:
The focus of the article, Letter to Wu Jizhong (Yu Wu Jizhong shu, 与吴季重书), a sample of Jian’an epistolography, is a message sent by Cao Zhi (曹植, 192–232) to his friend Wu Zhi (吴质). The article contains the translation and analysis of Letter to Wu Jizhong, which has not been studied in Russian sinology yet. Letter to Wu Jizhong is to be considered only in the light of Letter in response to Cao Zhi by Wu Zhi (Da Dong’e wang shu, 答东阿王书). Letter to Wu Jizhong is analyzed as an oratorical speech in writing. The analysis is based on classical rhetorical theories, mainly on Aristotle’s theory of rhetoric. In each of the 3 parts of the Letter… we highlight its subject, theme, problem, thesis, goal (elements of the Inventio). The oratory of the Letter… is epideictic and deliberative. “The topos of Size”, i. e., exaggeration, contributes to the grotesque-satirical effect.

Abstract:
Luosha Haishi 羅殺海市 (Lz 132) is a very emblematic tale of Pu Songling’s (蒲松齡, 1640–1715), as it involves emblematic themes of Liaozhai zhiyi (聊齋誌異): a critical view of society, an adventure into enchanted lands, and a complex relationship to an independent, powerful woman. The tale tells about the journey of a man who, after having been lost at sea, visits two imaginary worlds. Luosha Haishi reveals its originality when comparing both these places. The first one, the Country of Rakshasas, is a state in which physical appearance determines one’s social status. This society is a satirical portrayal mirroring Pu’s vision of Qing China officialdom. Conversely, the City of the Sea, the character’s second place of stay, is a utopian undersea place where the character knows immediate success. Luosha Haishi thus makes the bitter statement of the impossibility to access glory and richness when one does not wish to hide behind appearances, while for it to occur it would require an ideal world that exists only in imagination.

Abstract:
În acest articol se face o paralelă între Bildungsromanul lui Constantin Stere În preajma revoluţiei cu unele comedii ale lui Ion Luca Caragiale. Se accentuează, în special, aspectele care ţin de specificul satirizării în opera celor doi. Se are în vedere satirizarea societăţii româneşti de la finele secolului al XIX-lea – începutul secolului al XX-lea. La fel se fac referiri şi la literatura universală. Astfel că opera literară a acestor doi scriitori însumează comicul de situaţie, de caracter, de nume, de limbaj şi actualizează, într-un context satirizant şi prin intermediul personajelor reprezentative, grave probleme umane şi sociale.

Abstract:
The article compares the poetics of embodiment of the image of Moscow in the prose of outstanding Russian writers Yu. Polyakov and Yu. Trifonov. The image of Moscow in the works of Trifonov and Polyakov is autobiographical and filled with the signs of time and the authors’personal attitudes. Moscow in the works of both writers has temporal and spatial multilayeredness. Urban toponymy is widely represented in the literary works of both authors. Both of them resort to the use of spatial oppositions. In Yu. Polyakov's work a new spatial opposition "city - province" appears, mythologems are actualized, which are absent in Trifonov's works. The authors' attitudes to the ongoing changes differ: if Trifonov is dominated by the nostalgia for old Moscow, Polyakov, a master of "the grotesque realism", depicts urban realities satirically.

Abstract:
The themes of life and death, love and death, creativity and death, social upheavals and death are key in the writer's work. In the early period of his work, for example, in the novella One Hundred Days Before the Order (1980, published 1987), the final scene does not give a verydefinite answer - the soldier found in the ditch is either asleep or dead. The final remains open. In the works of the 1990s, the theme of death can be resolved both satirically (The Goat in the Milk (1994, published 1995)), tragic (The Sky of the Fallen (1997)) and dramatic (The Voroshilovsky Rifleman (1999)). At the turn of the 2000s and in the early 2000s, the writer used artistic techniques (metatext, Deus ex machina) that made it possible to “cancel” the physical death of the main characters (“I Plotted an Escape” (1999) and “The Mushroom King, or 36 Hours in the Life of an Almost Lonely Man” (2005)). This does not cancel the hero's severe moral crisis, but it preserves the possibility of positive changes. The novel the Plaster Trumpeter (2008-2022) is also a metatext. The writer dwells on such aspects as the attitude to death in society, the death of historical figures, death as an existential philosophical phenomenon, death and art. Death becomes almost the only irrevocable and authentic phenomenon in the life of a modern person surrounded by mirages. An important clarification of the author's position, in comparison with his previous work, can be considered the emphasis on the fact that art, regardless of whether it shows the physical death of a person or not, should help him to abandon mirages, see the truth and give hope to overcome at least moral death.
