Metatextuality as a property of the northern text in the literature of Yakutia (formulation of the problem)

Abstract

The article actualizes only some manifestations of metatextuality in the context of the northern literature of Yakutia as a single cultural tradition, within which the interpretation of literary texts is carried out and a vertical context is created, the unity of meaning (metasense) and means (meta means) of its expression. The emphasis is placed on the meta-level of this local text, which embodies the most significant cultural codes, the content and structure of the image of the world through the wholeness of texts of the regional subculture. The subject of the research is a special property of a local text – metatextuality - which can be interpreted as a unity of ensemble formations, establishing dialogical connections between different works (folklore, autobiographical metatext, basic images and motifs that form integral verbal-conceptual formations, etc.).
The purpose of the article is to identify only individual forms of metatext in the northern literature of Yakutia, which are cross-references of local elements of poetics that are repeated from text to text, in which the mechanics and logic of their formation, transformation, variation, evolution, dialogical connection with other elements of the local text are traced, permeated with internal connections. In general, the poetics of the northern text in the literature of Yakutia is considered as a naturally developing artistic system that has a structural connection between all elements, territorial-specific subethnic features that are realized in storylines, a motif-figurative complex, themes, and genre specificity.
