Проза Ивана Шмелева в контексте духовной парадигмы русской литературной классики (в перспективе избранных аспектов русского шмелеведения последних лет)
(Wydawnictwo Naukowe Uniwersytetu im. Adama Mickiewicza w Poznaniu, 2012) Horczak, Dorota
This article, based on some contemporary Russian literary research studies, contains a reflection on Ivan Shmelov’s prose in the context of the spiritual paradigm of Russian classical literature. Typical Shmelov motifs, such as the “Holy Rus”, a monastery as a symbol of an Orthodox center, the spiritual life of heroes, the individual and national internal way towards a new religious Renaissance – are developed in the manner of “spiritual realism”. They are also linked with the religious themes and aspects of the prose of Russian emigrant writers as well as with prerevolutionary pieces of literature, including texts from the time of old Russian literature.
