Jean-Philippe Jaccard, From the reality to the text. The absurd and Daniil Kharms.
The object of this article is to demonstrate on basis of works - mostly unpublished - the coherence between the philosophical vision of the world of Daniil Kharms and his poetics. The label "absurd" is applied in the first place to the fundamental duality ruling the relationship between man and a world viewed as sum total of particles with no connection between them. A certain number of notions comprised in the theoretical texts of Kharms will be studied within this framework: the law of equilibrium, the principle of asymmetry, minor errors ("nebol 'shaia pogreshnost ' "), etc. We will then see that this duality is expressed in the texts in prose of the author. First, on the thematic level: the creation of a particular type of character: a "sucker" thrust into a hostile world. Also on the level of form: the general tendency of text towards autodestruction (either by withdrawal into itself or by dispersal). It will be noted that the resulting nonsense and the comical element it supposes, raises this prose to the rank of global parody of the traditional processes of narration, whilst Kharms suggests an attempt at extra-ideological reply to great metaphysical questions.
