The Violence Plot as a Reяection of the V. Rasputin Transformed Worldview: novels “The Last term”, “Ivan’s Daughter, Ivan’s Mother”

This paper deals with the recurring plots of violence, shown in the novels “The Last Term” and “Ivan’s daughter, Ivan’s mother”. In the ёrst narrative the violence plot is not realized, the episode is minor, it does not affect the development of the plot, but in the second narrative the violence becomes the plot-constructing element, which determines the fate of the characters. The situations are developing in opposite ways, this fact suggests the rethinking of provisions, forming the basis of the writer’s worldview. The chronotope, the image of the “Other”, the ability of the kin and the community to protect, and gender roles offer a radically different solution of conяicts in the latter work. Analysis of recurring plots seems promising for understanding the transformation of V. Rasputin’s original worldview, allowing revealing the relevant categories and tracking philosophical changes.
