Культурный код Ф.М. Достоевского и А.П. Чехова в современной китайской прозе

Abstract

The cultural code as ―a combination of symbols and signs of culture‖ determines the continuity of the figurative, ideological, motivational structures in the literary process. The psychologism of Dostoevsky‘s prose, multiplied by the genre model of Chekhov‘s short story, is organic to the search for a figurative concept of personality in modern Chinese literature. The situation of choice in which the characters are placed is shown through oppositions of subject-psychological details, actualizing the contrast between a person‘s physicality and his spirituality. Detailing the narrative with characters in the climax episodes gives an allusion to the traditional question for Dostoevsky about the insolubility of the conflict between guilt and innocence. Voluntary separation of a ―bored‖ person (like a Chekhov‘s person) from the world is shown as a purifying solitude, and the idea of suffering inherent in the Russian tradition dominates the idea of suffering as the highest value.
