O knihe

'All the Same the Words Don't Go Away' brings together twenty-five years of essays and reviews, linked loosely by three themes. First is the creative potential inherent in transposing classic literary texts into other genres or media (operatic, dramatic) and the responsibilities, if any, that govern the transposer, audience, and critic. The practice of transposition, however,
gives rise to a creative confl ict: is there a limit to the amount of ornamentation, pressure, or dilution to which the "mediated" word can be subject? Finally, the more polemical of the essays included here are structured on the Bakhtinian notion of coexisting "plausibilities" and points of view.
What a carnival approach can uncover in Pushkin that might have surprised and
even pleased the poet, what a libretto or play script brings out that the "true original" hides: here the work of the creator and the critic can overlap in thrilling ways that respect the competencies of each.
