This book explores how the Italian commedia dell'arte has profoundly affected the Russian artistic imagination for over three hundred years, providing a source of inspiration for leading artists as diverse as Nikolai Gogol, Evgenii Vakhtangov, Vladimir Nabokov and the pop star Alla Pugacheva.
This monograph explores this coexistence of "archaist and innovator" in the figure of late Derzhavin, Russian patriot and profoundly European artist.
Acts of Logos examines the 19th-century foundations of St. Petersburg's famous literary tradition, with a focus on the unifying principle of material animation. Innovative interpretations of canonical texts by Pushkin and Gogol shed new light on the powerful, creative function of language in the Petersburg tradition.
