GENRE MEMORY IN ANGELA CARTER’S RE-INTERPRETATION OF THE BLUEBEARD PLOT

Abstract

The paper aims at disclosing the mechanism of genre memory, its ability to retain some persistent archaic elements due to their ongoing updating and renewal. The modern short story discussed appeals to the Bluebeard plot and is intended for grown ups. With scholars' inference about initiation rite as the underpinning of fairy tales and their symbolism hidden from children's eyes who are the common target audience now, the reinterpretation for adult readers is viewed as making symbolic truth less implicit, lifting of sexual taboos, and explication of inherent latent motifs related to initiation into adulthood.

В статье рассматривается действие механизма памяти жанра, его способности сохранять элементы архаики благодаря постоянному воспроизведению и обновлению. Материалом для исследования послужил предназначенный для взрослой аудитории современный рассказ, который апеллирует к сказочному сюжету о Синей Бороде. Основываясь на выводах ученых об инициационном каркасе, лежащем в основе волшебных сказок, и его символической маскировке, реинтерпретация архаичного сюжета трактуется как экспликация изначально заложенных мотивов, связанных с сексуальными аспектами взросления, скрытых от детей, иной целевой аудитории.
