Abstract

The article interprets the mystery codes in the poem “Field Hospital” by Arseny Tarkovsky. The research is based on the principles of mythopoetic and structuralsemantic analysis of the text, and provides a systematic approach to the work, taking into account the specifics of its plot-genre paradigmatics and figurative-symbolic language. The inner world of the poem is organized by the logic of the mystery topos with its key coordinates: frontier ontology; the evolving character of time and the reflection of its dynamics in the “dialectic of the soul”; existential self-reflection and detachment of the hero’s consciousness. The motivic complex of the border, repeatedly manifested in the text and culminating in the symbolism of the limb, becomes a meta-image, in the semantic field of which all the named parameters of the mystery continuum intersect. The model of reality recreated in Tarkovsky’s poem goes beyond mythological monism, but it clearly correlates with the mystery organization of the chronotope: the mystic is aware of the multidimensionality of the universe and the existence of boundaries between different spheres of reality – primarily profane-everyday and sacred – as well as the possibility of moving across these boundaries, which, ultimately, is one of the results of mystery initiations. The plot-forming meaning in “Field Hospital” is acquired by allusive references to the mystery texts of culture: the ancient Egyptian, Christian, alchemical mysteries are dialogically integrated in the act of birth – transfiguration – resurrection experienced by Tarkovsky’s hero. The central place in this paradigm is given to the mystery of Osiris and Isis, the symbolic codes of which are reflected in a number of iconic motifs, images, and details. The key among them are the motif of dismemberment and the semantic complex of the victim associated with it; the symbolism of death – resurrection; the archetypal dyad of a newborn – infant; a tree-natural code associated with the lyrical hero; the allusively designated image of Isis, personifying the female harmonizing principle of the universe. If the motif of dismemberment contains a specific reference to the theme of Osiris, then the other elements in this series also relate to the mystery of Christ and, accordingly, to the texts of culture associated with it, including the mysteries of the alchemists. The study leads to the conclusion that Tarkovsky’s “Field Hospital” is read as a metatext, where in a situation of semantic dialogue different culturological modes of mystery coexist, and the mystery consciousness itself enters into a relationship of mutual reflection with the mythological and tragic worldview. The logic of the myth is intertwined in the development of the lyrical plot with the logic of tragedy, which in turn is overcome through a detached view of the tragic situations experienced and the mystery-conscious acceptance of fate and life in all their manifestations.
阿尔谢尼·塔可夫斯基诗歌《战地医院》中的神秘元文本
本文对阿尔谢尼·塔可夫斯基诗歌《战地医院》中的神秘密码进行了解读。本研究以神话学原理和文本结构语义分析为基础,考虑到其情节类型范式和象征语言的特点,对作品进行了系统的研究。诗歌的内心世界是由神秘主题的逻辑组织起来的,其核心坐标是:边界本体;时间的演化特征及其动态在“灵魂辩证法”中的反映存在的自我反思与英雄意识的超脱。边界的动机情结在文本中反复表现,并以肢体的象征主义达到高潮,成为一种元意象,在语义场域中,所有神秘连续体的命名参数相交。在塔可夫斯基的诗中再现的现实模式超越了神话的一元论,但它显然与时空的神秘组织有关:神秘主义者意识到宇宙的多维度,意识到现实的不同领域之间存在着界限——主要是世俗的——日常的和神圣的——以及跨越这些界限的可能性,这最终是神秘起始的结果之一。《战地医院》的情节形成意义是通过对神秘文化文本的暗指来获得的:古埃及、基督教、炼金术的神秘被对话地整合在塔可夫斯基的主人公经历的出生-变形-复活的行为中。这个范例的中心位置是奥西里斯和伊希斯的神秘,它们的符号代码反映在许多标志性的图案、图像和细节中。其中的关键是肢解母题和与之相关的受害者语义复合体;死亡的象征-复活;新生儿的原型二分体-婴儿;与抒情英雄有关的自然法则;暗指伊西斯的形象,是宇宙女性和谐原则的化身。如果肢解的主题包含了对奥西里斯主题的特定参考,那么这个系列中的其他元素也与基督的神秘有关,相应地,也与与之相关的文化文本有关,包括炼金术士的神秘。研究认为,塔可夫斯基的《野战医院》被解读为一个元文本,在语义对话的情境中,不同的神秘文化模式共存,神秘意识本身与神话和悲剧世界观进入了一种相互映现的关系。神话的逻辑在抒情情节的发展中与悲剧的逻辑交织在一起,而悲剧的逻辑又通过对所经历的悲剧情境的超然看法和对命运和生命的所有表现形式的神秘意识的接受而被克服。
