“…All these double-edged concepts are filled with controversies and tension; they form integral elements of dialogical thinking in novels, and in life: ‘Such motifs as meeting/parting (separation), loss/acquisition, search/discovery, recognition/nonrecognition and so forth enter as constituent elements into plots’ in literature and by their very nature they are chronotopic (Bakhtin, 1981b, p. 97). These double-edged concepts strongly feature in Problems of Dostoyevsky’s Poetics (Bakhtin, 1984a) and perhaps even more in Rabelais and His World (Bakhtin, 1984b). In the latter, the contradictions between official and unofficial languages are shown, on the one hand, in their extreme separation from one another, and on the other hand, with the boundaries between them being removed; such movements between polarities are ridden with tension and clashes expressing different points of view and enabling diverse interpretations.…”
