This contribution aims to give a scholarly and human profile of the Italian Slavist Sergio Bonazza (1938-2021), recently passed away. Bonazza was born in a Slovene-speaking village nearby Triest to a mixed family. He studied in Venice and Vienna, where he started his activity as a researcher in the field of Slavic studies history, especially in the Austro-German and Italian contexts of the 19th century. His academic career unfolded mostly at the University of Verona, but also in Naples, Udine and Vienna. In 1987 in Udine, he was assigned the first chair of Slovene studies out of Slovenia. Gifted with a strong personality, he touched on a wide variety of concerns in different fields of Slavic studies, overcoming academic and cultural stereotypes, and often opening up new perspectives in the fields of history of Slavistics, Slovene culture and literature, Austro-Slavism, Slavic-Italian cultural relationships, Glagolitic writing in Eastern Italy, and more. Bonazza is well known as a specialist in the scholarly biography of the prominent Slavist Jernej (Bartholomäeus) Kopitar, to whom he devoted his best works, including a monograph.

Shortly after its completion, the Battle of Poltava became a key symbol of Russian imperial ideology. Yet the successful completion of the military campaign in Poltava acquired the status of a sacred event only in the last decades of the 18th century. In this article I investigate both the reasons why during Catherine ii’s reign this military event was granted its own entry in the Church calendar and the internal and external affairs that encouraged the process of sacralisation of the victory over the Swedes by the synodal Church. I argue that the analysis of the Poltava victory as a sacred symbol, which has been largely disregarded by historians, allows us, inter alia, to better assess the mobilising role of the Church feasts in the 18th-century Russian imperial policy.

The author analyses and discusses the five articles published in the thematic block. She remarks on the novelty of Pavlyshyn’s and Kočerha’s methodological approaches and interpretations of the kind of Orientalism or Post-Orientalism represented by the poem Khamsin and some poetic plays of Lesja Ukrajinka. Hundorova also highlights the interest of Achilli’s multifaceted analysis of Lesja Ukrajinka’s modernism, and gives a challenging evaluation of the interpretation of non-finito by O. Visyč. Among the most relevant contributions – Hundorova maintains – is Andrianova’s proposal of an ecofeminist interpretative clue to Forest Song.

Despite being one of the lesser known Serapion Brothers, Nikolai Nikitin had a brilliant early career. He was acclaimed by M. Gorky and the critic A. Voronsky as a very promising writer, able to convey the spirit of the post-revolutionary period, also in light of his personal experience as a volunteer in the Red Army. The first phase of his literary production dates from 1922 to 1924. In the texts of this period the thematic focus is mainly on the experience of the revolution, while, stylistically, they are characterized by a highly evocative and musical language that reveals the influence of A. Bely’s Simfonii. The article focuses on the long story (povest’) Noch’, edited and redacted three times during 1923, more than any of Nikitin’s novels. Being the most redacted and revised piece of Nikitin’s long fiction, the povest’ offers the possibility to investigate the relationship between the author and Voronsky who, more than anyone else, had a great impact on the young writer. The povest’ focuses on the battle between two trains, one white (called “L.G. Kornilov”) and one red (the “N. 14-7, Béla Kun”). In the first edition, the result of the battle is not conveyed to the reader; the only outcome is destruction and pain, and this caused a very negative and passionate reaction from critics and readers. The comparison of the three redactions of the povest’ shows the direction of the revisions, which started from a merely stylistic point of view and then moved to a more ideological layer, clarifying the result of the battle (now undoubtedly assigned to the Red Army) and highlighting the stichijnyj but deeply legitimate character of the Revolution itself. Starting from 1924, Nikitin will no longer participate in the meetings of the Serapion Brothers, and his poetics and chosen topics will change as well, moving in the stylistic and ideological direction that will be formalized in 1934 under the name of Socialist Realism.

Giovanna Brogi Bercoff, Marcello Garzaniti
The authors present some of the most important writings of the well-known professor emeritus of Bonn University, Hans Rothe (1928-2021), offering an overview of the main ideas he developed and the methods he applied in his research. Due attention is given to his indefatigable activity as an editor of important, mostly unduly forgotten medieval and early modern texts. His commentary to the first translations of the Bible for many Slavic peoples remains a milestone of Slavic studies. He was a pioneer in fostering research about Slavo-Byzantine liturgical and religious texts, devotional songs, and baroque literature in Russia and Ukraine. No less remarkable are his articles about the Enlightenment and such giants of literature as Lesja Ukrajinka, Deržavin, Puškin and Tolstoj.

Man in a Landscape, a central tale of The Monkey Link: A Pilgrimage Novel, is a poetic, meditative piece, concentrated on human life and its reasons, and on the figure of the Creator in a double sense: religious and artistic. Its structure is based on various dichotomies, such as ‘landscape’ and ‘view’, ‘genius’ and ‘mediocre’, ‘arts’ and ‘nature’, the boundaries of which become a focal point in the long conversations between the icon restorer, Pavel Petrovich, and the first-person narrator, a painter who eventually turns out to be a novelist. This paper focuses on the revelation of the author’s self-knowledge process. On the one hand, the process manifests in the characters representing Bitov’s alter-ego, and on the other, through the journey that evokes both Dante’s descent into the underworld and the drunken journey of Venička from Moscow to Petuški. By offering a reading of the text that considers the postmodern theory of narcissistic literature and a photographic approach, the analysis discloses how the ‘layer-theory’ of the main character Pavel Petrovich is transforming into an attempt at self-literary criticism by Bitov.
