The paper considers self-parody as a kind of self-reflection in the works of Vsevolod Ivanov in the 1910s-1920s. The most striking and well-known self-parody example is the image of the Chinese Shin-Bin-Wu in the adventurous novel “Iprit” that comically reinterprets one of the plot twists and the same type of character in the famous story about the Civil War “Bronepoezd 14-69”. The origins of the self-parody are not due to external reasons: the social order for the “Krasny Pinkerton,” communication between Ivanov, as a member of the “Serapionov Brothers” group, and theorists and practitioners of literary parody. Ivanov’s self-parody is conditioned by internal sources. The works of the 1910s reveal the young writer’s tendency to embody the main topics and motifs of his work almost simultaneously in tragic and comic variants. It is suggested that the writer’s self-parodies of 1918s-1919s originate from his awareness of the illusory nature of his aspirations and ideals and the impossibility of their realization. Also, a parody autobiography of 1922, in the spirit of “The Three Musketeers,” interpreting the tragic events of the Civil War in Siberia, self-parodies of the 1920s (the peasant revolution, the “secret secrets” of the human soul, the ideals of the “hearth-house” and the “mother and comforter of sorrows” destroyed during the revolutionary period) are assumed to be the author’s attempt to renounce some facts of his real or artistic biography, his desire to internally confirm for himself the correctness of his new path in life and art.

The work of Dmitri Gorchev is regarded as a phenomenon genetically related to “electronic literature.” This paper deals with his two books: Zhizn’ bez Karlo: Muzyka dlya ekzal’tirovannykh startsev (Life without Carlo: Music for exalted elders) (2010) and Ya ne lyublyu Pushkina: Iz Zhivogo Zhurnala (I don’t love Pushkin: From the LiveJournal) (2013), both based on the author’s blog in the Live Journal. Both books reveal a plot unity, defined by an infantile worldview of an autobiographical hero, whose reception is indistinguishable from the author’s. The central image of the first book, Pinocchio, becomes the embodiment of freedom and childhood for the author. The image of Pushkin in the second book is associated with the adult world. The Soviet childhood evokes ambivalent feelings in the protagonist: nostalgia and traumatic experience. The unity and artistic originality of Gorchev’s books are ensured by the childish, infantile view of the world of the autobiographical protagonist and his life-creating strategies of escapism, as well as by the density of the allusive layer dating back to the children’s reading and animation. The childish, naive view of the author defines his poetics that is close to primitivism. Nowadays, the Internet has become a breeding ground for the emerging phenomena of primitive art, combining folklore/mythological images with the images of mass culture and high culture. The images of Pinocchio and other characters of children’s books and cartoons used by Gorchev have become archetypes of the new mythology of the “mass” / post-Soviet person.
Dmitri Gorchev的作品被认为是一种与“电子文学”有遗传关系的现象。本文涉及他的两本书:zhzn ' bez Karlo: Muzyka dlya ekzal ' tirovannykh startsev(没有卡洛的生活:给高级长者的音乐)(2010)和Ya ne lyublyu Pushkina: Iz Zhivogo Zhurnala(我不喜欢普希金:来自LiveJournal)(2013),这两本书都是基于作者在LiveJournal上的博客。两本书都揭示了一个情节的统一,由一个自传体英雄的婴儿世界观所定义,他的接受与作者的没有区别。第一本书的中心形象皮诺曹成为作者自由和童年的化身。第二本书中的普希金形象是与成人世界联系在一起的。苏联的童年唤起了主人公的矛盾情感:怀旧和创伤经历。戈尔切夫的书的统一性和艺术独创性是由自传体主人公幼稚的世界观和他逃避现实的生活创造策略,以及可以追溯到儿童阅读和动画的暗指层的密度保证的。作者的幼稚、天真的观点决定了他的诗学接近原始主义。如今,互联网已成为原始艺术新兴现象的滋生地,民间传说/神话图像与大众文化和高雅文化图像相结合。戈尔巴乔夫使用的皮诺奇和其他儿童读物和卡通人物的形象已经成为“大众”/后苏联人的新神话的原型。

The paper considers cases of derivation in Evenki from verbs to nouns and from nouns to adjectives when the derivative preserves syntactic properties of the base stem (particularly the information on syntactic dependents). The examples of such derivatives are deverbal nouns and denominal adjectives with certain derivation affixes. Nouns preserve the verbal property of subcategorization (they govern a direct accusative object), and adjectives preserve the nominal property of attaching an attributive word: a noun (an appositive), an adjective, a participle, a numeral. The syntactic analysis of such phrases differs from their derivation analysis. In terms of syntax, the base stem and its direct object (or attribute) form one constituent: [[NP/AP + N/VBASE] + NMLZ], reflecting subcategorial and combinatory features of the base stem. The derivation affix in the syntactic representation is attached to the whole constituent, suggesting the construction with a phrasal affix. Such analysis relies on the notion of group flection or phrasal affixation. The phrasal affixation in inflection has been investigated in detail in typologically diverse languages. However, much fewer works are devoted to phrasal affixation in word formation. Evenki language specialists either did not report this phenomenon or mentioned it without giving an explanatory account. The sources of our examples are different: oral stories, newspaper articles, archives, and examples from grammars and other studies in Evenki. These data illustrate the transition of constructions with a deverbal noun and an accusative object from the class of productive (mid-20th century) to the class of idiomatic ones (21st century).

The paper is devoted to the semantic-pragmatic study of gender-marked vocabulary, in particular, emotional and evaluative nouns of common gender usually considered in grammatical and semantic-stylistic aspects. There is a large group of words in the dictionaries belonging as they do to the common gender. However, numerous cases are not so obvious (dushechka (darling), p’yanitsa (drunkard), glupyshka (silly), skvalyga (rogue), etc.). The meaning of such characteristics of a person is heterogeneous: it includes denotative and connotative (pragmatic) macro-components. Of interest is the correlation between gender and emotional-evaluative meanings. Active processes occur in this emotional and evaluative vocabulary category, resulting in lexemes losing their ability to designate males and females and becoming gender-specific characteristics. Lexicographic, psycholinguistic, and contextual analysis of emotional and evaluative nouns of common gender was conducted. We compared the data of three explanatory dictionaries and identified a lot of lexemes requiring special corpus and/or psycho-linguistic research to establish their gender correlation. The results show that the nouns attributed by most respondents (90 % or more) to a particular gender tend to lose their common gender. However, several words causing the biggest difficulties for the respondents made the survey results not unambiguous. We conducted a corpus study to verify the experimental data, with the results confirming our hypothesis. Among the nouns describing both males and females (the core of this grammatical category), some lexemes that tend to become gender specific and, therefore, to shift to the category of masculine or feminine nouns.
本文主要从语法和语义文体两个方面对具有性别标志的词汇进行语义语用研究,特别是对具有共同性别的情感名词和评价名词进行研究。字典里有一大群词都是属于普通性别的。然而,许多情况并没有那么明显(dushechka (darling), p 'yanitsa (drunkard), glupyshka (silly), skvalyga (rogue)等)。人的这些特征的意义是异质的:它包括外延和内蕴(语用)宏观成分。令人感兴趣的是性别与情感评价意义之间的相关性。在这种情绪性和评价性词汇类别中发生了主动过程,导致词汇失去了区分男性和女性的能力,成为性别特征。对普通性别的情感名词和评价名词进行了词典学、心理语言学和语境分析。我们比较了三本解释性词典的数据,发现许多词汇需要专门的语料库和/或心理语言学研究来建立它们的性别相关性。结果表明,大多数被调查者(90%或更多)归属于特定性别的名词往往会失去其共同的性别。然而,让受访者感到最大困难的几个词使得调查结果并不明确。我们进行了语料库研究来验证实验数据,结果证实了我们的假设。在描述男性和女性的名词(这一语法范畴的核心)中,一些词汇往往变得性别特定,因此,转移到男性或女性名词的范畴。

The paper considers two Udihe auxiliary verbs with negative semantics. Also, analytical constructions formed with them and their functioning in the language are examined. The negative auxiliary verb e= ‘not to do something, not to be’ is the primary tool to express negation analytically. It forms two-component NEG1=TNS=PERS + INF and three-component NEG1=TNS=PERS + MOD=INF + INF analytical constructions. It has tense, mood, and person-number markers. The main verb has the form of infinitive (simple, intentional, or causal). The negative verb e= allows nominal verbal forms with the semantics of purpose and condition to be formed, with analytical constructions of two types being possible: NEG1=NPURP=POSS + INF and NEG1=NCOND=POSS + INF. In this case, the person-number is expressed with personal-attributive markers. The negative auxiliary verb ate= ~ ata= ʻnot to do something, not to beʼ is used as part of the analytic construction NEG2=PERS + INF. It differs from the verb e- in several features: when forming analytical construction, its morphemic structure has only mood and personal markers, but not temporal. Functioning of ate- differs from e-. Ate- is more often found in the contexts describing situations that imply warnings about the future or categorical impossibility to perform an action in the future. It has been revealed that the use of the negative verb e- and ate- in Udihe is related to modal characteristics of the construction: the verb e= is used in sentences with real modality, while the verb ate= is used in sentences with unreal modality.
本文研究了两个具有否定语义的乌地和助动词。此外,本文还研究了由它们构成的分析结构及其在语言中的功能。否定助动词e=“不要做某事,不要成为某人”是分析表达否定的主要工具。形成双组分的NEG1=TNS=PERS + INF和三组分的NEG1=TNS=PERS + MOD=INF + INF解析结构。它有紧张、情绪和人数标记。主动词有不定式的形式(简单的、有意的或因果的)。否定动词e=允许形成具有目的和条件语义的名词性动词形式,可以有两种类型的分析结构:NEG1=NPURP=POSS + INF和NEG1=NCOND=POSS + INF。在这种情况下,人称数用人称定语标记表示。否定助动词ate= ~ ata= ' not to do something, not to be '作为解析式NEG2=PERS + INF的一部分使用。它与动词e-的不同之处在于:在构成解析式时,它的语素结构只有语气和人称标记,而没有时间标记。ate-的功能不同于e-。Ate-更常用于描述暗示对未来或绝对不可能在未来执行某项操作的警告的情况。研究发现,否定动词e-和ate-的使用与句式的情态特征有关:动词e=用于具有真实情态的句子,而动词ate=用于具有虚幻情态的句子。

The paper investigates the dynamics of the attributive relationships of the word klyatva ‘an oath’ in the Russian texts of the 18th - 21st centuries collected in the National Corpus of the Russian Language. The authors performed statistical and semantic analyses of adjective lexemes with the word klyatva. The results include the description of the dominating adjective distributors of the word under study as substantive and the semantic fields associated with it. The number of adjective combinations in the texts of the 19th century is threefold higher compared to the texts of the 18th century. In the 20th century, the combinability concerning klyatva tended to increase, with contexts containing 57 different lexemes. The contexts of this word under study at the beginning of the 21st century contain about 40 lexemes, with more than a half being new. However, it is too early to sum up the final results on the quantitative compatibility of the 21st century texts. Every period of Russian language development is characterized by the introduction of new adjectives combined with klyatva as substantive. In the texts of the 19th - 21st centuries, the semantics of klyatva expanded as new options for compatibility appeared. Attributive compatibility shows that in the semantic scenario of klyatva, the adjectives used, first of all, emphasize the speech genre itself. Adjectives enhance the following elements of the scenario: the pronunciation of klyatva, its addressee and content, the place, the term, and the number of participants.

This paper examines the narrative aspects of the category of seriality based on the novels of contemporary Russian writers. It is stated that, in contemporary literary criticism, the concept of seriality is used to characterize two different trends. The first is a designation of the desire for a repetition of intrigue and characters in works of popular literature. The second is a fundamental feature of the poetics of the avant-garde and postmodernist texts manifested in several ways (fragmentation, stringing of the same type of episodes, or deconstruction of a linear sequence of events). The analysis has proved that this serial structure of narration actualizes the neocumulative intrigue, aiming not to depict a static “imaginary” world or a catastrophic resolution of the initial situation (which is typical for the traditional cumulative plot model) but to multiply a paradigmatic event. This type of repetition indicates a provocation strategy that activates the consciousness of the addressee. Nosov’s novel “The Curly Brackets” uses the potential of the cumulative stringing of episodes corresponding to the occasionalistic artistic worldview and the occupation of the characters (who are magicians). Salnikov’s novels feature the interaction of series of diegetic events with events conditioned by the imagination of the focalizers (“Petrovs’ Flu”) or by the poetic intention of inserted texts (“Indirectly”). In Pelevin’s serial universe, the “self-closure” of the narrated events is never complete: their depiction involves a polyphonic system of interpretations with which to discover the semantic lacunae.

The Center for the Storage of Manuscripts, Old Printed Books, and Rare Editions of the Institute of History of the Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences holds a unique fragment of the “Conversation between a father and his son about female malice.” This fragment begins with “...the devil was terrified by his preaching and began tremblingly speaking...” and ends with “also the worst servants of the evil lord, how dared they look at the Holy...” This passage is notable because the story of John the Baptist who suffered (beheaded) because of the intrigues of the Jewish queen Herodias and her daughter Salome is followed by a text about the life and the suffering of Stefan Uroš III of the Serbian dynasty and his conflict with his son over the succession to the throne, which led him to death at the hands of his son and his henchmen. Thus, the “Conversation” addresses the problem of children’s attitude towards their parents, with a focus on one of the main Christian commandments: “Honor your father and your mother.” These lines are not found in any copies of the “Conversation,” preserved only in an Old Believer manuscript of the 18th century, suggesting an Old Believer origin of this version especially since the nature of the alteration is consistent with the desire to strengthen the didacticism. This paper, for the first time, publishes a fragment of the “Conversation” with a short chronological version of the Lives of Stefan Dečanski.

This paper is devoted to the linguistic works by Alexander Evgenievich Anikin, Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, on the occasion of his 70th anniversary. Alexander Anikin, a versatile philologist, has made a significant contribution to Russian, particularly dialectal and Ural-Altaic etymology. The linguistic tradition that Alexander Anikin adheres to is associated with the names of famous etymologists of the Russian language, Max Vasmer and Oleg N. Trubachev. The scientific path of Alexander Anikin as an etymologist includes several stages. The starting point was his interest in Balto-Slavic language contacts and borrowings. Then, Alexander Anikin turned to the study of the language contacts in terms of the vocabulary of the languages of the peoples of Siberia and the Far East and Siberian dialects of the Russian language. Currently, the researcher is working on the Russian Etymological Dictionary. This dictionary is an ambitious project that involves searching for etymons for the maximum possible number of Russian words described in etymological, historical, and dialect dictionaries and studies. The Russian Etymological Dictionary differs from many other etymological dictionaries of the Russian language. It covers the dialectal (including Siberian), outdated, and ancient words lost in modern Russian. Also, the paper considers the principles of selecting the linguistic material and the structure of dictionary entries and characterizes the range of languages, which Alexander Anikin analyzes in the context of etymology.
本文在俄罗斯科学院院士亚历山大·叶夫根尼耶维奇·阿尼金诞辰70周年之际,专门介绍他的语言学著作。亚历山大·阿尼金是一位多才多艺的语言学家,对俄语,特别是方言和乌拉尔-阿尔泰语源学做出了重大贡献。亚历山大·阿尼金坚持的语言学传统与著名的俄语词源学家马克斯·瓦斯默(Max Vasmer)和奥列格·n·特鲁巴切夫(Oleg N. Trubachev)的名字有关。亚历山大·阿尼金作为词源学家的科学道路包括几个阶段。他的出发点是对波罗的海-斯拉夫语言接触和借用的兴趣。然后,亚历山大·阿尼金转向研究西伯利亚和远东各族人民的语言词汇以及俄语的西伯利亚方言的语言接触。目前,该研究人员正在编写俄语词源学词典。这个词典是一个雄心勃勃的项目,包括搜索词源学,历史和方言词典和研究中描述的最大可能数量的俄语单词的词源学。《俄语词源学词典》不同于许多其他俄语词源学词典。它涵盖了方言(包括西伯利亚语)、过时的和在现代俄语中丢失的古代词汇。此外,本文还考虑了语言材料的选择原则和词典条目的结构,并对语言的范围进行了表征,亚历山大·阿尼金从词源学的角度对其进行了分析。

The literatures of the indigenous peoples of Siberia, who had no written languages before the Soviet period, were the outcome of the state-sponsored project and were to become “national by their form and soviet by their content.” However, the authors, subjects, and topics of these literary texts were initially associated with a certain ethnonym, culture, and mentality. They were also isolated from other literature texts due to institutional and infrastructural reasons: the works of indigenous writers were published as special book series by specialized publishing houses. As a result, a corpus of literary texts with similar topics, subjects, plots, and motifs was formed. This similarity goes beyond the common sources in the mythology and folklore. The authors’ introspection on ethnical self-identification and writers’ reflections on the ill-fated disappearance of their cultures and peoples become the main plot and motif “generators” in books of the second half of the 20th century. The study has identified four main groups of plots: 1) childhood plots: everyday life descriptions including detailed descriptions of rites and rituals, the plot of a wise old man/woman’s death, the motifs of loss and memory, idyllic topoi; 2) hunting plots: the most common plot is about breaking a taboo or rule and the consequences; 3) shaman plots and related plots about journeys to other worlds, literal and symbolic, and oneiric motifs; 4) plots about interactions with outsiders. It is concluded that the literatures concerned proved to be mostly writers’ reflections on the fate of their peoples and native culture.
