Abstract

Subject of the article: vertical transmission of culture. The article discusses the way Lermontov’s plot is implemented in modern literature and mass culture. Many writers openly refer to the famous novel “A Hero of Our Time”, which makes their works easily recognizable. However, in contemporary poetry there are examples of latent organic mastery of Lermontov’s plot. The research object is a poem “Taman” by Valery Dudarev, in which the transmission of culture is observed, manifested through the archetypal situation of crossing, sailing in Pechorin’s boat on a moonlit night. Both in Lermontov’s story and in Dudarev’s poem this plot requires an additional cultural background commentary.The study is based on a holistic analysis of a literary text using the structural-typological, comparative, system-integrated research methods.
