Summary/Abstract: Using the theatrical setting of Mikhail Bulgakov’s Heart of a Dog as an example, and adding to it the analysis of the response to its premiered performance, this paper explores the problem of stage setting for classical (Russian) prose, while considering the cognition of reading strategy – especially theatrical reading strategy – being a creative process. In addition, this analysis deals with the logic behind this process since it is dependent upon the many components which embody the “event of the meeting” between the text and the reader. The Heart of a Dog has not, according to the written sources, at least not at Sarajevo’s theatres, found an adequate dramatic form, regardless of the interesting directorial concept of the play. This paper presents the reader with inherent reasons to the directorial lapse, at the same time elucidating the necessity of a thorough reading of prose when considering the theatrical settings of both Russian classical literature and world classical literature.
