Mitično v kratki prozi Vlada Žabota

Abstract

Prispevek predstavlja poskus razbiranja implicitnih in eksplicitnih mitičnih elementov v zbirki kratke proze Vlada Žabota Bukovska mati, kjer se protagonisti – sicer dediči moderne subjektivne zavesti, ki se je formirala v novoveškem romanu, v kratki prozi pa je še radikalizirana – znajdejo v neobvladljivem mitičnem svetu. Atmosfero tega sveta sestavljajo močvirje, blato, sluz, megla, noč, ki so paradigmatski atributi kaosa; čas je linearen in prinaša kavzalne posledice, a ne teče vedno sukcesivno. Še bolj pa je za mit simptomatična organizacija kolektiva, ki je pravzaprav plemenska skupnost s svojimi zakoni in rituali, protagonist pa v srečanju z njo pogosto postane objekt žrtvovanja. Ženski liki se s svojo ambivalentno vlogo poželjive, a pogubne ženske približujejo podobam bele žene, divje žene ali matohe. Afiniteten odnos pisatelja do mitičnih vsebin se ob vseh njegovih romanesknih delih kaže tudi v pobudi za generacijski zbornik mlade slovenske proze Rošlin in Verjanko ali Dolgo odlagani opravek slovenstva.

Secondary abstract:	The paper attempts to identify the implicit and explicit mythic elements in the collection of short prose Bukovska mati by Vlado Žabot, in which the protagonists, as inheritors of the contemporary subjective mind, which has been created in modern times and is radicalised in short prose, find themselves in an uncontrollable mythical world. The atmosphere of this world is composed of swampland, mud, slime, fog and night – which are all paradigmatic attributes of chaos. Narrative time is linear and causes consequences, but is not always successive. Another even more symptomatic characteristic of a myth is the organisation of the human collective, which is as a matter of fact a real tribal community with principles and rituals of their own. Getting in touch with this kind of community, a protagonist often becomes the object of sacrifice. Female characters play the ambivalent role of desirable but fatal women, thus resembling the images of bela žena, divja žena or matoha. The author’s great affection for mythical content which is present in all his novels and the work Bukovska mati is also displayed in his initiative for a generational collection of Young Slovene Prose Rošlin in Verjanko ali Dolgo odlagani opravek slovenstva.
