О некоторых аспектах ориентализма И. Бунина и В. Брюсова

Abstract

The author of the paper considers I. Bunin’s orientalism in the light of V. Brusov’s creative intentions. After I. Bunin’s brief collaboration 307 with V. Brusov’s editions, alienation came, growing into the rejection of creative mindsets. Nevertheless, a scrupulous analysis reveals V. Brusov’s influence both on promotional writing and on the system of images created by I. Bunin, inspired by orientalism. I. Bunin tries to carefully veil these intentions, and therefore the matter concerns the subtle reminiscences, and not hints and paraphrases. They show that I. Bunin’s worldview, generally, remains close to symbolists and is an inherent part of Russian modernism.
