Vilniaus kaip puolusio miesto mitas Ričardo Gavelio romane Vilniaus pokeris / Vilnius as a fallen city represented in the novel „Vilnius’ Poker“ by Ričardas GavelisKvietkauskaitė, Erika 08 June 2005 (has links)
In this work, we have analysed the myth about Vilnius as a fallen city represented in the novel „Vilnius’ Poker“ by Ričardas Gavelis. We have looked in to the contemporary myth of Vilnius, searching for the myth of the city foundation and other ancient myths, which have been compared with the modern mythology of the city. The following analysis represents the discussion about the origin of city and some its’s problems in lithuanian culture, going deep into the myth of the Vilnius foundation and it‘s transformation in Ričardas Gavelis’ novel. One of the principal metaphors in the novel is the one showing Vilnius as a labyrinth. The fallen city and the maze take the vertical and horizontal meanings of space and the images in the novel. The characters are compared with archaic heroes, looking for survivals of the ancient myths. An individual is constructed as an absurd person. Their standpoint to God and to the city is estimating. The city is the manifestation of the modern myth, because now the myth can be everthing what is valuable to make narration.
