ИНТЕРМЕДИАЛЬНЫЙ ДИСКУРС В РУССКО-НЕМЕЦКИХ ДРАМАТУРГИЧЕСКИХ ТРАНСФОРМАЦИЯХ СЮЖЕТА О МЕДЕЕ XX–XXI ВЕКОВ
INTERMEDIAL DISCOURSE WITHIN THE RUSSIAN-GERMAN DRAMATURGICAL TRANSFORMATIONS OF THE PLOT ABOUT MEDEA IN THE XX–XXI CENTURIES

Summary/Abstract: Intermedial discourse within the transformations of the plot about Medea in the XX–XXI centuries is examined from the point of its functioning in the process of the binary Russian-German dramaturgical parallels, which provides productive understanding of the reception of the constant components of the myth by certain national mentality. Numerous manifestations of intermediality in literature, cinema and painting of the second half of the XX and the early XXI centuries take various forms and confirm the signifi cance of the phenomenon for the entire cultural process of this period. In this regard, it is relevant to analyze the ancient story of Medea from the intermedial point of view in the works of such twentieth- and twenty-fi rst-century authors as H. Jann, H. Muller, T. Lanoy, V. Klimenko and L. Razumovskaya. The conclusions of the study and the proposed methods of analysis contribute to a deeper understanding of the transformation of the story of Medea in the diachronic and synchronic aspects. This methodology can also be used for analyzing the reception of other ancient plots and images in the literary consciousness of the twentieth and twenty-fi rst centuries. Thanks to the authors’ myth-making, we are dealing with a special worldview paradigm that combines well-known mythological motifs and images, repeatedly demonstrating their timelessness and relevance through the prism of modern confl icts. The novelty of the research topic is connected with the fact that the example of one mythological plot transformation in the diachronic and synchronic contexts demonstrates the productivity of analyzing a special type of intratextual interrelations in a literary work based on the interaction of the artistic codes of different types of art. The emergence of new synthetic types of media art and new forms of their interaction requires new methodological approaches to investigating them within different national world picture models in the era of multiculturalism.
