Existential Dialogue Home / Away in Modern Post-postmodern Drama

Abstract

The purpose of the undertaken research is to trace the various semantic relationships between the objective world of the House, with its protective function of “amulet”, and the Home as an objective reality. As a result of the textual analysis of V. I. Kalitvyansky’s plays “The Carrier”, V. V. Sigarev’s “Ladybugs Return to Earth”, E. A. Gremina’s “Sakhalin Wife”, the semantics of the existential dialogue of the inner and outer material world in various paradigms are revealed. So, the material world of the House in the play by V. I. Kalitvyansky demonstrates fidelity to the ideological guidelines developed by the House, making up a political dialogue of like-minded people; the dialogue between the House and the House in Sigarev’s drama merged into an emotional monologue of cemetery signs of death; in E. A. Gremina’s play, the existential dialogue House / House is based on an outright antithesis of worldviews, but not hostile, but reconciling a person with the environment and fate. Thus, the material world in the plays of postmodernists embodies the dialogical space of their semantic and emotional codes.
