In 1971, a couple of American Slavists Karl and Ellendea Proffer founded the Ardis publishing house. Joseph Brodsky later compared their work with the coup that Gutenberg once carried out. Russian culture owes a lot to the modest publishing house of Profferov: both the restoration of the interrupted connection with the Silver Age, and salvation from oblivion of the hushed up literature of the 1920s – 1930s, and the publication of topical writers banned in the USSR.
