Abstract

Abstract Sergei Parajanov, famously and sardonically, noted in various ways that he was an Armenian, born in Georgia, educated in Moscow, and arrested in Kiev for Ukrainian nationalism. He was also the quintessential idealized Soviet subject of the Caucasus. Parajanov directed a series of highly experimental films that are impossible to categorize. He began work on his Confession ( Ispoved’ ) an autobiographical script exploring his upbringing, as an Armenian, in Tiflis/Tbilisi. Parajanov began to film Confession in 1989, but became ill before more than a fragment was filmed. This essay examines Confession in an effort to decipher Parajanov’s self-image as an Armenian/Soviet director from Tbilisi.

并置与发明:谢尔盖·帕拉亚诺夫，《被证明》和亚美尼亚身份

谢尔盖·帕拉亚诺夫(Sergei Parajanov)以各种方式指出，他是一个亚美尼亚人，出生于格鲁吉亚，在莫斯科接受教育，在基辅因乌克兰民族主义被捕。他也是高加索地区典型的理想化的苏联臣民。帕拉亚诺夫导演了一系列高度实验性的电影，这些电影无法归类。他开始创作自传体剧本《告白》(Ispoved)，讲述他作为亚美尼亚人在第比利斯/第比利斯的成长经历。帕拉亚诺夫于1989年开始拍摄《告白》，但在拍摄不到一个片段之前就生病了。本文检视《告白》，试图解读帕拉亚诺夫作为第比利斯亚美尼亚/苏联导演的自我形象。

期刊介绍： Caucasus Survey is a new peer-reviewed, multidisciplinary and independent journal, concerned with the study of the Caucasus – the independent republics of Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia, de facto entities in the area and the North Caucasian republics and regions of the Russian Federation. Also covered are issues relating to the Republic of Kalmykia, Crimea, the Cossacks, Nogays, and Caucasian diasporas. Caucasus Survey aims to advance an area studies tradition in the humanities and social sciences about and from the Caucasus, connecting this tradition with core disciplinary concerns in the fields of history, political science, sociology, anthropology, cultural and religious studies, economics, political geography and demography, security, war and peace studies, and social psychology. Research enhancing understanding of the region’s conflicts and relations between the Russian Federation and the Caucasus, internationally and domestically with regard to the North Caucasus, features high in our concerns.
