Revolutions in Verse: The Medium of Russian Modernism

English

By (author): Isobel Palmer

Modernism cannot be reduced to a rejection of established norms. Revolutions in Verse: The Medium of Russian Modernism spotlights Russian modernist poets and formalist theorists conscious engagement with formal convention, showing how their efforts were tied up with broader attempts in the early Soviet era to understand and articulate the nature of poetry and its most characteristic devices. Returning to critical debates around and poetic encounters with three key aesthetic categoriesrhythm, image, and voiceIsobel Palmer examines the more profound innovation of this period: its interest in the material bases of poetic speech. Through fresh readings of canonical poets and theorists, from Andrei Bely and Vladimir Mayakovsky to Yury Tynianov and Viktor Shklovsky, Palmer shows how the proliferation of interartistic experiments and the emergence of new media technologies made poetry visible as a medium in its own right. This book offers a timely contribution to renewed discussions about modernism, the concept of literary form, and the value of literature and literary criticism. See more
