rival Chaadaev, each foreigner driving to watch the big gun and
the great bell. The gun, which can not shoot, and the bell, which
fell before called. An amazing city where
the sights are ridiculous; or maybe the large
a bell without a tongue -- hieroglyph expressing this huge dumb country
which inhabits the tribe, who called themselves Slavs, as if
wondering what is the word of man" (There. same. P. 175). I think
this is a very semiotic observation, we can discover many
layers.
And even the problem of the Slavophiles, too, can be clothed in an unusual form.
Masquerade 1846 brought the problem to the secular society of that time:
"can the Russian apparel to be entered in the costume? According to the testimony of
the correspondent of "Northern Bee", masquerade S. A. Korsakov brilliant
resolved the task in a positive sense: the Russian apparel completely overshadowed
all of the others. This was a lesson, visual learners, staged with dostatochnoe
conviction in the presence of 700 guests. The masquerade opened with a dance
the costumes of the age of Louis XV and antique-mythological; when enchanted eyes
quite satisfied with this luxurious foreign sight, -- at midnight
the music had stopped, the doors flew open, and the sounds of Russian choral songs
hall joined the national procession. Ahead was a dwarf, carrying a native
birch tree, which was decorated with colored ribbons with inscriptions in Russian
sayings and Proverbs, followed by the Prince and Princess in their best clothes and 12 pairs
the boyars with baranami, in rich velvet coats and sarmalkar, in brocade
dushegreya and pearl padisah, then the boyaryshnya with blond braids, in
sundresses, etc.; the procession was made from a bell choir, singers and the household; he sang
the verses, written by S. N. Stromilova and put to music in the Russian style
A. A. Alyabieva:
We gathered to the Lord,
The hospitable host" (Ibid. P. 102-103).
This long quotation is justified by the fact that before us was the task
practical semiotics: how everyday type of clothing (=sign) to make
masquerade, especially in a situation of conviviality, that is, special conditions
functioning. This is probably facilitated by the fact that the type of the viewer
did not perceive it as common.
