Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of Wisconsin - Madison, 1995.

This study is devoted to works of Russian and early Soviet literature in which the often troubled relationship between people and things provides a unique perspective on the evolution and devolution of utopian ideals, coupled with a utilitarian quest for functionality, as imaged in the literary sphere. Chapter One, centered on the Futurists Velimir Khlebnikov and Vladimir Maiakovskii, traces a progression from dystopian to utopian vision based on a concept of material revolution, which entails a reappraisal of the role to be played by things and the material sphere in the new society.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This study is devoted to works of Russian and early Soviet literature in which the often troubled relationship between people and things provides a unique perspective on the evolution and devolution of utopian ideals, coupled with a utilitarian quest for functionality, as imaged in the literary sphere. Chapter One, centered on the Futurists Velimir Khlebnikov and Vladimir Maiakovskii, traces a progression from dystopian to utopian vision based on a concept of material revolution, which entails a reappraisal of the role to be played by things and the material sphere in the new society.
520 $a Chapter Two turns to the satirists Mikhail Zoshchenko and Il'ia Il'f and Evgenii Petrov, who treat the devolution of Futurist visions as they collide with the reality of Soviet Russia during the New Economic Policy. This devolution occurs in two spheres. First, the "new Soviet man's" inability to appreciate the "socialist" potential of things and to come to terms with their newly designated functions. Second, the devolution of collectivism into conformism, stemming from linguistic totalitarianism, or a process whereby man is "thingified" by the language--Soviet Newspeak--which coerces humans into functioning as "cogs" in the nascent socialist machine.
520 $a Chapter Three treats works of Iurii Olesha, primarily Envy, where the thing/man/utopia concept centers on a conflict between form and function. Characters who truly "belong" to the new order feel at home in a world of utility and functions; for them, things are hospitable. By contrast, those who privilege artistic vision, or form, over utilitarian function, find things essentially hostile, unless they can subject these things to some manner of artistic metamorphosis.
520 $a The final chapter centers on Fedor Gladkov's novel Cement. Here, under the umbrella of dialectical materialism, the Futurists' bold revaluation of things is conjoined with absolute control over "things"--man, machine, and material--in a framework of utilitarian utopianism and the very resurrection of the thing (the factory) as the new collective hero.
