Particularities of the poetics of the novel "Bylina about Mikula Buyanovich" by G. D. Grebenshchikov: the structural and genre aspect
The symmetry of the composition of «Bylina about Mikula Buyanovich», pointing to a special organization of the text as a number of loci significant from the value standpoint, is closely connected with the genre nature of work as a complicated alloy of epos, folklore and dramatic art. A considerable role in the genesis of the novel was also played by the «emigrant» text, especially that of I. Bunin and A. Remizov, that made a peculiar creative contact, dialogue, with the «Siberian» pre-revolutionary text of G. Grebenshchikov. The «construction» metaphor revealing the essence and functions of locutivnost in «the Bylina…» finds a life-building aspect in the work of the writer who realized the main metaphor of the book in constructing Churayevka - a special «ideological» settlement, «monastery» in an American remote place. Thus, G. Grebenshchikov's novel is a genuine phenomenon, an artifact born by the demolition of eras and outlooks.
