The Message of the Editorial Board
This issue of the Journal of Siberian Federal University (Humanities) is devoted to the Year of
Literature in Russia. The fact of drawing attention to the issues of Russian literature, the problems of
studying, teaching and promoting literature as the highest achievement of Russian civilization, speaks
for itself.
Books have always played a special role in Russia due to the focus of the culture on literature
in general. Destruction of this principle in the postmodern epoch had immediately effected such
quality of Russian literature as its widespread presence in religious, political, social philosophic and
scientifi c discourses, and consequently in the disciplinary network, certain spiritual and intellectual
traditions. The nature of this status was ambivalent: dissolution of the literary origin in non-literary
verbal contexts prevented the isolation of literature as an independent kind of aesthetic activity.
However, at the same time it also created the effect of “omnipresence” of literature leading many
social practices to book samples. The transition from the Enlightenment faith in the power of the Word
to undermining of the status of the Author, relativization of literary writing, signifi cant violations of
the conventions and boundaries of literary art in general – ranging from their outmost socialization
within the Soviet project to de-socialization and total revision in the postmodern aesthetics, where
the hierarchical vertical is substituted by the pluralist horizontal, occurred in the middle – end of
the 20th
century. Along with the acquisition of an autonomous status, literature faced visual arts
commercialized before itself, the symbolic value of which is determined by the popularity with the
masses.
Without the support of the government, literature has not been able to compete on equal terms
due to the low demand, lowering of the status of the intelligentsia, which has lost its previous social
charisma, as well as due to thinning of the layer of “serious” readers heading at some point to the
entertainment provided by visual kinds of art. The tradition of working with complex texts, which
constitutes one of the most important features of the national culture, has been devalued. The author
has become a craftsman, even a jester, and not the prophet and the teacher, with the mission of
entertaining the audience. At the turn of the 19th
– 20th
centuries the “popular writer” phenomenon
has appeared. Their earnings are substantially higher than those of classical writers, for whom
literature was the service, the mission. The demand for mass literature, a writer-onlooker, observer,
who estrange themselves from their own text, becomes an indicator of the crisis of literocentrism,
the strengthening of the market authority, its right to determine the status of a product, a gesture,
an event.
The national version of the European Enlightenment determines books selling as negative,
defending the sacred value of the written text, which hides God’s Word: “The word combines both
reason and speech, and one of the names of the Son of God and the law he gave to people”, Yu.M.
Lotman writes. The authority of the Word is recognized as immanent, inherent in the word as it is, “idle
talk is unnatural as desecration” 1
. M. Mamardashvili considers all Russian classical literature to be a
verbal myth, a unifi ed “social-moral utopia”, “an attempt to give birth to the whole country by means of

words, senses, the truth” 2
. In terms of desanctifi cation of the image of the book, the word of the writer
desacralizes, becomes “the word of men” requiring discussion and review. The artist fi nds real freedom
and their only risk is the commercial failure of their own books, but at the same time, the social value
of their works is reduced.
Experts refer the end of the liberal period of Russian literature to the beginning of the 1990s, when
the victory of liberal ideas made reading modern literature irrelevant, while its traditional functions
associated with the creation of “bright future” utopias are not in demand3
. Fine literature becomes the
destiny of few, getting the museum qualities. The occupation of a writer loses prestige. Along with
these processes, however, we can observe attempts to preserve “literary ideology” from the top-down as
evidenced by the dismissive attitude toward mass literature, the operation of the cultural establishment
fi eld similar to powerful one, damping of the underground.
The current situation, which intricately combines the tendencies of the fading interest in “serious”
literature and the hunger for preserving “literary ideology” with the efforts of the government (as
evidenced by the presence of many literary awards, TV broadcasts on relevant topics, regular meetings
between senior offi cials of the state and writers), is intensifi ed by a distinct defi cit of the “cultural
reader” who can consume fi ne literature, which has become a mainstay in the chaos of modern times,
the area of freedom and risk. The very understanding of Philology has been also changing, literature
studies migrate from the strict limits of hermeneutics toward creativity and experiment.
This issue contains three sections.
The fi rst section, Theoretical Aspects of Literature With the Sign of “Post”, is devoted to
theoretical problems of contemporary literature, discussing the problem of the status of literature in
today's world where literature fi nds its relationship with the reader; tracing the transformation of genre
defi nitions (utopia/dystopia); exploring sets and rituals that characterize modern critics, and fi nally,
considering the intellectual mode of art (for example, poetry) as an expression of the literary thought
trends of the 20th
century as a whole.
The second section: The Poetics of Literature: Themes, Plots, Heroes includes works on the
history of national literature beginning from the story-parable about the tsar Lion (Lev) of the 17th
century and fi nishing with the articles devoted to the issues of narration in the works by A. Solzhenitsyn,
ideology and mythological poetics of Russian traditionalist prose of the second half of the 20th
centuries.
– 21st
The third section: Literature and the Issues of Reception includes studies on the perception
of the mythology of Voltaire (onomomyths of the author) in the national culture; rhetoric of the early
aesthetic manifestos of Proust; the methods of studying the reception of contemporary Russian literature
by Chinese readers and peculiarities of the functioning of today’s Russian-language poetry of Georgia
are discussed. The section fi nishes with an article about the problems of national identity and their
artistic expression in the current Ukrainian prose.
On behalf of the Editorial Board of the Journal I would like to give special thanks to the authors
of the issue, among them well-known Russian and European philologists and beginning researchers.
The issue contains the works of specialists of different scientifi c schools and directions of the leading
