Меняющаяся софийная функция женских персонажей в русской литературе XX века
Abstract
The present study examines in what ways three 20th-century works, Yevgeny Zamyatin’s short
story “The Flood”, Viktor Yerofeyev’s novel “Russian Beauty” and Ludmila Ulitskaya’s novel “Sonechka”,
are connected to Fyodor Dostoyevsky’s novel “Crime and Punishment”. Beyond the surface parallels
in the plot, the presence of a poetic-semantic complex rooted in mythological thinking is observable.
The sophic function, which is transformed in each of the successive works, is one of the components
of the said complex.
