2. BY the MEMORIES OF the ALLEYS Nor everything what it is faced can be modified, but nothing it can be modified if it will not be faced. James Baldwin In last the two decades, we can consider as being almost a common sense the idea of that collective identities are constructions social politics and that they must be treated as such. Of this new perspective, it was transferred to affirm it that individuals construct its identities and that the maintenance of these identities depends on the resultant process of the kept interactions for these individuals in the process of understanding of itself proper and its interventions in the reality. Collective identities had passed to be understood to not only leave of an aggregate of social interactions, but also of the politician-strategical reason of social actors. After all, if identities are constructed, the one that interests they serve and who is those excluded of the process? The notion of identity, that breaches with the dichotomies between individual and society, passed and present, as well as between social practical science and, so is associated with the memory idea as this last one to the first one. The direction of continuity and present permanence in an individual or social group throughout the time depends in such a way on what it is remembered, how much what is remembered depends on the identity of who remembers.

When analyzing the workmanship Alleys of the memory, we cannot omit the origin and ethnic-social condition of that it writes. It is evident, in all the body of the workmanship the scienter of the author. Its marks of black woman of humble origin they are not camouflaged by a text ' ' romantizado' '. The black writer reveals in its totality, exposes itself integrally, leaves to penetrate us in its more recondite memories. She assumes yourself as that one that speaks and not of who if she speaks.

Home page and Eliseev creativity Skobelev, humor and satire (in particular, a caricature). And children's books, which they apply – is so-called "funny books". Munchausen himself in their pictures – never losing heart, cheerful, energetic, and often daring, but at the same time extremely frivolous and funny man. Funny his little skinny figure, it long crimson nose, dashing mustache, famous for pigtail. Nothing but smiles and laughter, can not call it "harsh", "arrogant" look, "unassailable rigor, ability to maintain imperturbable calm, even" grace " under the most extraordinary circumstances. Very funny and all of the events depicted by artists. Freed from the leash "best shot" Baron horse in front of the amazed audience playfully jumping from the top of the church right to his owner. "Intimidating" fare-comic scene Munchausen by Winter Petersburg in a sleigh harnessed with them a huge wolf: almost fell from his seat driver a passing carriage, scared sitting in her people stood in horror at the rearing horse.

And yet higher above them soared (not too much fear there?) Mighty steed presided over by a Bronze Horseman. Menacing and comical at the same time the culprit of all this commotion – a wolf, a huge, wide open mouth, he fiercely and At the same time, a little sly one eye looking sideways toward the audience. A baron himself with calm, even slightly stern look governs their unusual "tax". It is hard to keep from laughing at the sight of Baron Munchausen, decisively and coolly firing a snatch at him "furious coat" or preserving "beautiful secular" stance at a time when wearing it herself jacket "Shoot" their buttons a whole pack attacked its owner wolves. The artists are well managed to convey adventure, adventurous side of the story. However, in the image of adventure, they always want to disclose that is, their comic essence. Adventure and humor in their drawings inseparable. So, we have considered examples allow us to draw conclusions about what kind of relationship and interaction exist between the book of literature and illustration, between image and word.

Illustrations are reinforce one or another part of the literary narrative. They give readers a chance to look at the events and heroes of the book from the perspective of the artist. But the text for its part affects the perception of readers of illustrations. Therefore, while reading the story, some images of heroes Dora perceived as a much more comic, funny, than they really are, and some illustrations Skobelev and Eliseev by comparing them with the text reveals the essence of fairy-tale fantasy. This is so complex and delicate process of mutual influence, mutual influence, mutual complement and enrich the content of the text and graphic design. Committed original synthesis – that is, the compound complementarity, mutual literature and graphics, the synthesis of images and words.

The point here is rather in the way flow and mechanism of action of the story. Absurd and cruel modern anecdote ridicules including cases that for a man "romantic" warehouse are absolutely ridiculous. And there is a tendency to totalization ridicule – is absolutely ridiculous, and all around trying to find a funny side. Perhaps this is due to the physiological effect of laughter – laughter is fun and can act as a drug. This is already philosophical question Anecdote, still inherent – and this is perhaps its principal charm – absolute fearlessness. Anecdote involves the type of freedom that people unconsciously cherish most – freedom, which it neither non-binding. Normal anecdote does not threaten, nowhere calls and asks for nothing.

Anecdote is free from any kind whatsoever prescriptions. The one who accepts it, he promises clean, fun game. And this is the main therapeutic function of the anecdote. It removes the fear of the world not only because it all and all it equalizes (although this adjustment is carried out only in fantasy and anecdote understands it), but the fact that he is lenient to the real world, giving him the opportunity to be yourself. Anecdote as a kind of fun, language play quite unconsciously create common values and meanings.

In view of this anecdote is one of the easiest ways to another person – to anything non-binding and in no way binds. Anecdote brings people together, removes the estrangement between them, preserving their autonomy and independence. Wise pritchevost characterized the best jokes. It is no accident Some formulas of these jokes went over to the aphorisms and sayings, summarizing our experience of life: "Go prove that you're not a camel!", "Do not make waves," "Is this life?", "I would be your concerns, Mr. Teacher!" etc. In this case, there the main difference between anecdotes from statements and aphorisms. It is their deliberate anonymity. Even when the anecdote is the official author, it is usually not advertised, and often vice versa – is leveled, making the popular anecdote creativity. The vitality of the anecdote explains anekdotizmom life. In one of the Polish jokes contains this dialogue: – Do you have a new anecdote? – No. What about you? – Also no. Ugh! What kind of government? The fact that the vitality anecdote caused anekdotizmom life, one can see by looking at the many jokes on the Internet. Strained attempts to come up with a new anecdote only in rare cases lead to success. And this happens only when can spy on and briefly present case is really funny or pathetic situations in life. Andersen said that the best fairy tales – the ones who come up with life itself. By anecdote, this applies even more measure.
