Abstracts

PL

By focusing on Sasha Dvanov – the main character in the Chevengur novel by Andrei Platonov – the author points to possible interpretations and connotations of his name, patronym and surname. Thereby, she proves that the writer was choosing meaningful names and surnames for his characters, thus trying to underline their function, their role in the storyline or emboss their destiny. And even though the translation of the character’s surname into Polish was not very difficult for the translators, due to the proximity of the languages and lexical convergence, the wide association context of the surname may be difficult to understand for a statistical reader.
