The book provides readers with a study of a range of principal paradigmal watersheds in the history of Russian literature, Russian avant-garde and Russian philological thought at the turn of the XIXth and XXth centuries. The author dwells on the problems of 'the Writer and Authorities" in the 1930s (B. Pasternak, M. Bulgakov, O. Mandelstam et al), the semantics of Russian radical avant-garde (K. Malevich, L. El-Lisitsky, M. Shagal et al) and non-traditional interaction of academic trends and schools in the XXth century philology (L. Vygotsky, M. Bakhtin, G. Shpet, Andrey Bely, L. Ginsburg, A. Sinyavsky, M. Gasparov, V. Toporov)
