Abstract

Venedikt Matveev (Mart) is a prominent figure in the literature of the Far Eastern Russian emigration. His cycle of ornamental miniatures (“martelias”) “The Story of My Death” reflects the original features of the new mythopoetic thinking corresponding to the modernist literature of the early 20th century. In this article we analyze avant-garde compositional and stylistic techniques employed in these short stories in the historical and theoretical context.
