УРУШАВАЊЕ ВРЕМЕНА И ПРОСТОРА - ПОЗИВ НА ПОГУБЉЕЊЕ ВЛАДИМИРА НАБОКОВА
THE COLLAPSE OF TIME AND SPACE - INVITATION TO A BEHEADING BY VLADIMIR NABOKOV

Summary/Abstract: This paper discusses the distribution of narrative time, the absence of anachronisms and the uniform pace of anisochronisms: the interchange of isochronous dialogues, summaries of events and reflective pauses in the rhythm of one chapter - one day. Nabokov’s novel relativises both space (illogical mazes and passages, distorted mirrors, the corrosion of the material world) and time (after his death, the character continues his life in another, parallel time). The visual imagery of the text (and the scene oriented narrative time) draws this novel towards the dramatic genre.
