Jemal Karchkhadze's novel “The Lodger’’ and Markers of Modernism

ანოტაცია

“The Lodger’’ is a modernist text. We will use every tool and means, for example, verbal thinking, symbols, author’s comments and viewpoints in relation to the text, creative language, aesthetic-ideological and ontological structure, in order to determine the primary essence of the text, to define “the whole” and in addition the constant interrelation of the whole and the part. Its primary mission is to represent the human existential search, hopelessness, doubtfulness in the modernism epoch. The destruction of the worldview landmarks existing in the parable language, permanent estrangement with oneself by irrational and anthropological essence and at the same time the realization of own absolute will, certain personal disorientation and spiritual catharsis.
