Rosyjski realizm socjalistyczny w porządku historii literatury : (założenia metodologiczne)

Abstract

The author deals with the project of a history of Russian 20th c. literature. In the present study he formulates some fundamental methodological assumptions, claiming that socialist realism should be treated as a „closed” literary current with its own specific poetics which, at the same time, was the state’s official aesthetic doctrine, an that it should be described in a synchronic way. He emphasises that the epoch of (1929—1953) yielded also outstanding works written in opposition to the official doctrine.
