Литературная черта оседлости: От Гоголя до Бабеля

Issledovanii͡a vostochnoevropeĭskoĭ literatury v bolʹshinstve svoem ogranichivai͡utsi͡a odnim i͡azykom, kulʹturoĭ ili nat͡sionalʹnostʹi͡u. V knige Amelii Gleĭzer 'Ot Gogoli͡a do Babeli͡a' rassmatrivai͡utsi͡a intensivnye prot͡sessy kulʹturnogo obmena mezhdu pisateli͡ami, zhivshimi na territorii͡akh sovremennoĭ Ukrainy i rabotavshimi na russkom, ukrainskom i idish. Kak pokazyvaet avtor, rynki i i͡armarki na territorii sovremennoĭ Ukrainy sygrali kli͡uchevui͡u rolʹ v razvitii literaturnykh tradit͡siĭ russkogo, ukrainskogo i evreĭskogo narodov na proti͡azhenii poslednego stoletii͡a sushchestvovanii͡a Rossiĭskoĭ imperii i v pervye gody sovetskoĭ ėpokhi. Oni byli tesno svi͡azany mezhdu soboĭ, inogda konfliktui͡a, no neizmenno obogashchai͡a drug druga khudozhestvennymi i kulʹturnymi obrazami. Avtor analiziruet literaturnye proizvedenii͡a ot 'Sorochinskoĭ i͡armarki' (1829) N. V. Gogoli͡a do rasskazov I. Babeli͡a o nasilʹstvennoĭ kollektivizat͡sii 1929 goda. Amelii͡a Gleĭzer ubeditelʹno pokazyvaet, chto tvorchestvo Gogoli͡a okazalo glubokoe vlii͡anie ne tolʹko na russkikh, no takzhe i na ukrainskikh, i na evreĭskikh pisateleĭ, takikh kak Grigoriĭ Kvitka-Osnovʹi͡anenko i Sholom-Aleĭkhem.

Studies of Eastern European literature are mostly limited to one language, culture or nationality. Amelia Glazer's book From Gogol to Babel examines the intensive processes of cultural exchange between writers who lived in the territories of modern Ukraine and worked in Russian, Ukrainian and Yiddish. As the author shows, markets and fairs on the territory of modern Ukraine played a key role in the development of literary traditions of the Russian, Ukrainian and Jewish peoples during the last century of the existence of the Russian Empire and in the early years of the Soviet era. They were closely related to each other, sometimes conflicting, but invariably enriching each other with artistic and cultural images. The author analyzes literary works from N. V. Gogol's "Sorochinskaya Fair" (1829) to I. Babel's stories about the forced collectivization of 1929. Amelia Glazer convincingly shows that Gogol's work had a profound influence not only on Russians, but also on Ukrainian and Jewish writers such as Grigory Kvitka-Osnovyanenko and Sholom Aleichem.
