Abstract

The paper deals with the spatial images of Germany presented in the Russian literature traditions at the turn of the 18th – 19th centuries in the "Journey" by W.K. Küchelbecker. The common elements between these traditions of the depiction of territories of Germany and W.K. Küchelbecker’s text are the liminality of Baltics and Alsace, the motif of the monotonous travel through Prussia, representation of Saxony as the idyllic land whereas Prussia is antiidyllic, as well as labeling Germany as a land of European prominent cultural figures. Moreover, at the same time, unlike to sentimentalism discourse the romanticist W.K. Küchelbecker is more prone to depicting of contrasts in the image of Germany in his works. His picture of Königsberg is remarkably unusual combining traditional German (medieval-Gothic) and non-German typical features. The characteristic romanticism elements connected with the landscapes of Germany in the “Journey” are the rejection of the mechanistic civilization and worship of nature. In addition, W.K. Küchelbecker represents Germany as the battlefield for freedom of Europe.
德国空间在W.K. kchelbecker作品《旅程》中的再现
本文以W.K. kchelbecker的《旅行》为例,分析了18 - 19世纪之交俄罗斯文学传统中所呈现的德国空间形象。这些描述德国领土的传统和W.K. kkchelbecker的文本之间的共同元素是波罗的海和阿尔萨斯的限制,在普鲁士单调旅行的主题,萨克森是田园诗般的土地,而普鲁士是反田园诗的,以及将德国标记为欧洲杰出文化人物的土地。与此同时,与感伤主义的话语不同,浪漫主义作家W.K. kchelbecker在其作品中更倾向于对德国形象的对比描写。他画的Königsberg结合了传统的德国(中世纪哥特式)和非德国的典型特征,非常不同寻常。《旅行》中与德国风景相联系的浪漫主义元素是对机械文明的拒绝和对自然的崇拜。此外,W.K. kchelbecker代表德国是欧洲自由的战场。
