Dom, w którym nie można żyć. Prowincjonalna Rosja oczami niektórych uralskich dramaturgów

Abstract

The article is an attempt to characterize provincial Russia as a home that, unlike in the traditional approach, does not provide people with security and stability, but, on the contrary – it itself is dangerous. On the basis of selected works by Nikolai Kolyada, Vassily Sigarev and Jaroslava Pulinovich, the article presents the relationship between the ruining space that comprises forgotten towns of Russian province with cramped, unkempt houses that make them up and the spiritual condition of their inhabitants.
