metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: While speaking of Pu Songling’s (1640–1715) impact on the Chinese literature
  one can’t help mentioning his short stories about fox turnskins and other wonders,
  known in English as Strange Tales from the Chinese Studio (Liao Zhai zhi yi). Commonly
  here the general survey concludes, and the main efforts are directed to analysis of the
  author’s pencraft and concealed political implications, since most of the plots are believed
  to be not original but adopted from earlier oeuvre. Thus the two major implied
  notions can be worded in the following fashion: 1) Strange Tales are the only work by Pu
  Songling to be mentioned and 2) they happen to be quite a secondary piece of literature
  based on borrowed stories and twisted about to serve the new main objective —
  mockery on social and political routine of the author’s present. The chief idea of the
  article is to cast a doubt on both of these notions and to show diversity and richness
  of Pu Songling’s genres and subjects as well as finding out the basis of these texts’ attractiveness
  for readers for more than 300 years. The other goal of the paper is to give a short overview of Pu Songling’s translations into Russian and their influence on the
  literary tradition of modern Russian prose. The main focus is put on the difficulties any
  translator is to face, on the quest for the optimal form of reproduction of the original’s
  peculiarities. Since the language of Pu Songling’s stories is Classical Chinese (wenyan),
  the author’s mastership in reproduction of different speech styles including common
  vernacular is also to be mentioned and analyzed.
