Sigizmund Krzhizhanovsky
Sigizmund Dominikovich Krzhizhanovsky (, (ポーランド語:Zygmunt Krzyżanowski); – 28 December 1950) was a Russian and Soviet short-story writer who described himself as being "known for being unknown"; the bulk of his writings were published posthumously.
==Life==
Krzhizhanovsky was born in Kiev to a Polish family on 11 February 1887.〔Adam Thirlwell, "(Master of the Crossed Out )," ''The New York Review of Books'', vol. LVIII, no. 11 (June 23, 2011), p. 57.〕
Judging from his works, major influences on his style were Robert Louis Stevenson, G. K. Chesterton, Edgar Allan Poe, Nikolai Gogol, E. T. A. Hoffmann, and H. G. Wells. Krzhizhanovsky was active among Moscow's literati in the 1920s, while working for Alexander Tairov's Chamber Theater. Several of Krzhizhanovsky's stories became known through private readings, and a couple of them even found their way to print. In 1929 he penned a screenplay for Yakov Protazanov's acclaimed film ''The Feast of St Jorgen'', yet his name did not appear in the credits. One of his last novellas, "Dymchaty bokal" (The smoky beaker, 1939), tells the story of a goblet miraculously never running out of wine, sometimes interpreted as a wry allusion to the author's fondness for alcohol. He died in Moscow, but his burial place is not known.
In 1976, scholar Vadim Perelmuter discovered Krzhizhanovsky's archive and in 1989 published one of his short stories. As the five volumes of his collected works followed, Krzhizhanovsky emerged from obscurity as a remarkable Soviet writer, who polished his prose to the verge of poetry. His short parables, written with an abundance of poetic detail and wonderful fertility of invention – though occasionally bordering on the whimsical – are sometimes compared to the ''ficciones'' of Jorge Luis Borges. ''Quadraturin'' (1926), the best known of such phantasmagoric stories, is a Kafkaesque novella in which allegory meets existentialism.
