Andrey Levkin. Kitchen hermeneutics 2

And the similar point of a series of reviews, declared in the first issue , is simple: the texts are not written by a person. Just because to write them means doing only this, not to eat and not drink. They are written by a certain other essence, of course - prepared for this by the author himself. Brought up by him for this. Since this essence does not have the usual name - well, it is not to call it the author’s ego, Alter Ego et Cetera, or even inspiration, I used the euphemisms of the “Letter Agent”, “writing the author of the author” or even “Golem” last time. This is, or something, from evil, because these entities can feel and develop; Already Sorokinsky is undoubted. That is - these are not golems in the traditional sense of the term. We will meet a real goal now.

Boris Akunin. Pelagia and black monk: Roman. - M.: LLC "Publishing House AST"; LLC "Publishing House of Astrel", 2001. - 416 p. - Printed in Minsk "Polygraphic Combine named after Y. Kolas." Hygienic conclusion # 77.99.14.953.p.12850.7.00 dated 07/14/2000

Another technological retreat. It would seem that in this case we are dealing with the most complete manifestation of the writing goal: since even a pseudonym is taken. That is, something that writes inside Mr. Chkhartishvili is taken into the world and is called Boris Akunin.

But not; The situation is as if complicated (however, only at first glance): a certain mystifying intermediary is thrown here, on behalf of which - here, or something, a certain psychophysical artistry of the author himself is assumed - someone else, the following, is sent to write texts.

The procedure, in essence, is funny, given that Akunin himself is as a physical. The face is about the mind - approximately Akaki Akakievich. This, of course, is a private pick -up, but in general - the device of pseudonyms requires special work: it is necessary to provide them with the measure of their competence, the circle of knowledge, experience - it is, and not at all. Determine the measure of responsibility, type of personality, features of perception. Such work, with the exception of cases of simple cover (replacing the author’s name), is not easier than preparing and introducing a spy. It is clear that the pseudonym implies a certain expansion of the author’s capabilities, he must, within the framework of the built legend, - to be able to dare to dare to dare. Otherwise - why?

Everything is wrong right there. Exactly the opposite. Here, a fictitious author builds himself from the texts that he, as it were, writes. That is, the opposite - relative to the author’s - the situation: it does not work in order to find out, say, some properties (high, horrors) of the world, on the contrary, it makes himself up from the fact that he turned up by the arm.

Of course, from a scientific and technological point of view, such a turn is interesting: how such embeds occur, what substances are required by artificial creation in order to declare your presence in the world. The subconscious (usually) the desire of the physical author in such options is doomed to dominate.

It is clear what to pay attention to - to the choice of interiors, accessories of life, included in the form of circumstances: which of them is easier to enter anything in them?

A very interesting story. In fact, any living author does the same: he selects such circumstances for himself, but - in order to decide in them with his text. Enter with them, or something, into a relationship. Here - exactly the opposite, the passage through the established stamps. It is not surprising, therefore, the language of description in such cases is the stylization - approximately corresponding to that stamp, that fiction that are selected by the basis of the pseudonym, a virtual person.

Of course, the option that Akunin used as his place of life is known: a certain conditional Russia, moreover, is so conditional that he has to recreate it again in every next book (approximately Nikitomikhalkovskaya Russia). In addition, the virtual is easier to work with miracles and so on. Magia, this, for example, is fantasy: this is not the last thing and then in order to shade the imagination of the “author” himself with an even greater non -existence of the subject of speech (such as Max Fry, for example).

Well, then - the purely production of applications, as in the labor lesson in very elementary grades. Well, yes, Zavolzhsk, just the name of some mailbox. There you can also finish a stranger changed version of the New Jerusalem by renaming it into a new Ararat, with all the place that took place there, which will allow the common toponymics and natural conditions of Valaam and Solovki, leaving the object within the same mailbox with the secret -atomic name Zavolzhsk. With an undoubtedly rocket-nuclear black spike located under the side.

Of course, Count Litte, and so on. Hrynoten regarding the use of names and words. Bronze giant over the river, etc. (and all this is Zavolzhsk), and there is also Chika Zarubin - it is strongly incomprehensible why he needed, however, like Yermak Timofeevich, who, which means a bronze idol is erected. Meanwhile, on such inspired disasters at someone else's expense (the idol, for example, are some Witsraor, Druckkargi and Duggura from Daniil Andreev) has already gone a certain number of pages, and at the expense of this, thoroughness that adheres to the desire of the narrator was already achieved.

Here, accordingly, a black monk appears, which is already completely obscured, and there are also quite Arakcheev settlements, the elders, some kind of psychiatry’s book, carefully rewritten for reasoning and diagnoses, which are appropriate to turn into characters (in fact, why not paint diagnoses in the faces, if there is a tendency?), Lermontov - in the organization of a “water society” as a prototype of society as a protracted of society as a protracted of society as a protrusion Bogomoltsev. Well, with spoons the Dostoevsky used, which is therefore clearly not mentioned. From it, Allyusia is already borrowed by so many kilograms that the fee for the book should be divided with its heirs.

And in total, an interesting result, by the way, is the result. Russia is like what Nikita Mikhalkov came up with, sprinkled with Russian writers adapted to complete castration and decorated with Dostoevsky, who was transferred to the most socially accessible level, so that all his abysses and so on. They will provide society with a pleasant highlight of being. Such is the fatal triangle Chkhartishvili - Akunin - Russian prose. It contains even a certain public news, the essence of which is that not everything is still stolen within the native limits over a decade of predatory privatization (so the Communists would have stated this).

Of course, all this is precisely the use of other people's textures, and not a game with literary allusions; In the case of gait, a certain additional meaning is assumed, but here they are just food for a creature who is given to make pages from the life of some subhuman: will accept real creatures of the book, so that it is possible to get rid of them almost without explanation and so on. Problems - this is about the plot, motivation, etc.

But what is beautiful: the very virtual author has to do the goal for himself ( “Alyosha will go, ribbon” - reports along the way), imposing on this essence the task of investigating (respectively - tell) some incidents with a borrowed monk who was borrowed. Next, the following texture in the form of a noble sergeant -polytseister Lagrange will go there, then the Berdichevsky cross; In his case, almost all his diverse daughters will be described at the same time, just some kind of Rosanov. All of them can be easily shuffled.

Of course, this already completely resembles the construction of a pyramid like MMM, which, by virtue of its fiction, can keep itself only by attracting new participants. Moreover, a certain amount of paper will also go to enter each other character; In addition, borrowings will be quite appropriate in the descriptions even from guidebooks - in the city of K., say, up to the “Nosachevsky shone” (apparently, a textbook in mathematics, Lobachevsky, came to Chkhartishvili ...).

Well, of course, the heroes sent to the place of action take turns again re -describing everything that has already been described earlier, as if in their own way. It is equally obvious that the pyramid will not fall apart - because it is a stack of paper sheets and it can be pressed with a cover when it begins to spread: in this version of compositions this can be done at any time - as we will see. In the meantime, it is easy to find that the discussions about the tie, Sasse, catharsis, braking, and about the difference between the plot and the plot are meaningless regarding this prose - for their complete coincidence. Because such texts are not written, but compiled.

Of course, further everything is about the same - the pyramid doubles: there is a sequence of arrivals, something happens to each. The main texture appears, Pelagia, which neatly renounces everything that previous visits have already reported, after which there will be a turn of versions relative to photocopy.

The matter is simple, it can be done as much as you like, especially since as a result it turns out that everything stated had nothing to do with the sought secret and did not hint at it. It will appear a perfect attached dining: the end of the book - where this story will finally be attached. So there is even no detective here. And B. Akunin, who seemed to write, as it were, the detective, yes, we can assume that it arose.

The way described above can be made of any number of virtual agents of writing and using them to compose texts. It will look something like children playing daddy. Who will not be touched?

Separately - about the language. In such cases, he is a kind of shoe, such as a fabulous, even if the presentation does not occur at all from the first person. The reason for this substitution is obvious - it is the fictitious of the presenting: this trick (the narrator talks for a third party, but not neutral, but with the "storytellers" curls) his artificiality is supported over the entire length of the masterpiece. Let us pay attention: the prose writer Akunin itself as such does not write anything. It only makes up the chatter assigned to someone else.

Given the fiction of surroundings, such a language cannot be really spoken. It is stylized to nothing and looks like the one to which some people (approximately scientists) on the website of Werner set out stories from life. They, from the shyness of public performance, or something, must be fucked.

Well, the fact that rhythmic word forms of the type, “Sinai, Sinai, are staring and sitting in memory, are and, well, find out” (or “come to know” ) is a mechanic, well known to any manufacturer of advertising slogans. All this, of course, is quite unclean, like any simplification - but disgust here is inappropriate, because life is considered as such.

In her life, the roles is Golence Boris Akunin (a specific golem, that is, undead), who, due to the assimilation of other people's textures, ensures his existence. That is, here it is not an agent of writing to the text, but rather the purpose of the text is the creation of a fictitious author -perfume. 80 percent of the text in this case goes to its construction and existence, and the remaining 20 percent - words -bindings.

In fact, this can be done: in this provocation, your twist is possible - making the author a visible result of the letter, you can push into it, the author, interesting things. The main thing is to put it from: what life will stuck such an idol. Kozma Prutkov is still alive.

But there is no such chance, and the point, of course, is in the fiction of space that could be projected to a certain B. Akunin. In addition, this character is inappropriately, so that the fictions that he used to go further cannot go.

What, in fact, is the Boris Akunin project? In the entire sequence of the works of Akunin, no project is visible. Even a commercial one - it is unlikely that Akunin was started in the calculation of commercial success: how would the publisher appreciated that Pilles will haw it? The manuscript was already. It follows that, in general, the essence of the project was precisely in the creation of the author Akunin (well, why not akaki ...). And for horseradish he was needed by the author, who knows ... Here you can only guess, given at least the fact that the "Doakunin" book of Chkhartishvili was called "Writer and Suicide". But this is a subject for unlikely interest of some therapists.
