Communication Levels of the Russian Zaum Poetic Experiment

Abstract

This paper presents the communication analysis of the Russian Zaum poetic experiment vision. Russian Zaum poets experiment with utilitarian language, as well as scientific and theoretical discourse. They construct new meanings, rules and writing, producing hybrid cubo futurism, and archetypal and mythic language. This paper analyses the collapse and deconstruction of grammar, poetics and ways of writing utilitarian speech, as well as openness verse, interweaving narrative and non-narrative poetic structure. The Zaum poetic experiment shows intermedia complexity (opera “Victory over the Sun”), ambiguity (Hlebnikov) and fluidity whilst dealing with the utopian visions of a new world.
