Poetic Dialogism between Nabokov and Shklovsky

Abstract

Abstract: Both Nabokov and Shklovsky were Russian émigré writers and critics in Berlin in the 1920s. As to their sojourn abroad and literary activities, the two had much the same fate and fortune. From the perspectives of literary writing and poetic exploration, “A Guide to Berlin” and Zoo: or Letters Not about Love constitute hidden poetic dialogism which is embodied, in specific detail, in the two works. The dialogism suggests that Nabokov, to some extent, corresponded to Shklovsky's aesthetic principles of defamiliarization. However, it indicates more Nabokov's inheritance and transcendence of formalism poetics.

Key words: Nabokov, Shklovsky, poetic dialogism, “A Guide to Berlin”, Zoo: or Letters Not about Love
