Based on factual and autobiographical material, this article examines the question of reception (especially in the early period) by Andrei Bely of the creative intentions and personality of Knut Hamsun, the “ruler of minds” of the early twentieth century. Hamsun, together with other Scandinavian writers and composers like Henrik Ibsen, August Strindberg and Edvard Grieg had some influence on the Russian symbolist Andrei Bely. Separately the article raises the question of returning to the reader and to the philological science certain names of modernist writers, also it draws attention on contemporary studies of their works. In addition, new light is shed on how Knut Hamsun excellently shaped the “stream of consciousness”-technique, as well as, how Andrei Bely modified namely this technique, last but not least on the shift from the traditional novel-form with its plots and heroes towards a more subjective and irrational style in story-telling. Based on the material of the novels “Hunger” and “Petersburg” techniques of embodying the subconscious are shown as the main “hero” of these works. In connection with that, the author of this article examines in a typological way a new concept of man, particular features of poetics and narrative strategies of Knut Hamsun and Andrei Bely, the most important mondernist writers of the early XX century.
Keywords: Russian-Norwegian literary interrelations, Andrei Bely, Knut Hamson, typological parallels, the technique of “stream of consciousness”, “brain game”
