  "A Letter that Never Reached Russia" has mainly been read as a nostalgic farewell to the narrator's first love who remained in the Soviet Union after the October Revolution, while he chose exile. Often the reason why the letter never reached Russia has been attributed to censorship, but, more likely, it never was sent because, in the process of composing his response to her letter, he realized that she, now a long-time citizen of the Soviet Union…

  This study focuses on the Russian modernist attraction to Bergson's notions of duration and intuition, his unbridled optimism in both art and life, and his belief in the individual's creative power to perceive and participate in a constantly changing, dynamic universe. In an intriguing conclusion that addresses present-day concerns, Fink explores the significance of Bergsonian thought for post-Communist Russia as it continues its creative evoluti…

  In Hamlet from Shchigry District, one of the sketches in Ivan Turgenev's Notes of a Hunter (1852), the narrator's unknown interlocutor refuses to give his name, merely calling himself a provincial Hamlet. The reason is that he bitterly resents what he calls his lack of originality. He keenly feels the irony of being deemed original by his naive rural neighbors whereas he himself is convinced that he lacks uniqueness. Representing an as yet novel …

  Nikolai Zabolotsky's long poem The Triumph of Agriculture (Torzhestvo zemledeliia) has been an object of controversy since its publication. As with Blok's The Twelve, critics have not been able to agree about the poem's stance towards contemporary events.1 For The Triumph of Agriculture, the basic question is whether the poem satirizes the collectivizers of Soviet agriculture or hails them as founders of a better world. A valid interpretation of …
