This monograph offers a deep dive into the dramatic works of Andrei Platonov from the late 1930s to the early 1950s, positioning them as an integral part of his unified creative universe. The study examines the plays "The Father’s Voice," "The Magic Being," "The Lyceum Student," and "Noah’s Ark (Cain’s Brood)." To unlock their full meaning, the author draws on a vast array of material, including Platonov’s prose, journalism, notebooks, letters, and archival documents.
By synthesizing contextual-motivic, micro-poetic, and "genetic" research methods, the book reveals the unique artistic character of these late plays. This approach simultaneously traces the "genesis" of Platonov’s dramas and dissects their intricate motif structure. Crucially, by turning to folkloric, biblical, and literary contexts, the author offers a groundbreaking reading of the hidden, "cryptographic" layer within these works, charting the artistic and philosophical evolution of Platonov as a playwright.
The book is intended for literary scholars, philology students, postgraduates, teachers, and anyone deeply interested in the legacy of A. Platonov.
