Abstract

This article considers ludic aspects in the works of representatives of the Russian religious renaissance taking place at the end of the 19th and start of the 20th century. Playful cultural forms manifested in imitations of the traditional Russian practice of holy foolishness, juxtapositions of the serious and the humorous, the phenomena of autoparody, and ironic confession in the texts and personal myths of Vladimir Solov'ev, Pavel Florenskii, and Vasilii Rozanov. In this context of categories of literary play, the author analyzes the peculiar phenomenon of the parodic double-ganger in Pavel Florenskii's works: Archimandrite Serapion (Mashkin).
