„Nagie życie” Wieniczki Jerofiejewa, czyli Moskwa-Pietuszki z perspektywy teorii montażu Sergieja Eisensteina

Abstract

The article is an attempt to conduct a comparative analysis of Venedikt Erofeev’s Moscow-Petushki in the context of Sergei Eisenstein’s theory of montage, which was derived from the combination of montage of attractions, analogies and antitheses. Treating Eisenstein’s experience as the point of reference I focus on the techniques used in Erofeev’s text, whose target are the reactions of the virtual recipient, for example the juxtaposition of apparently unconnected shots in order to shock the reader. My paper turns attention to the use made of various artistic means such as the leitmotif of alcohol consumption exposed in the poem, pauses, counterpoints or manipulation of emotionally intensified episodes.
