| Summary: | The article examines the perception of Russian literature by the Czech literary criticism of the liberal-democratic political orientation from the magazine Rozpravy Avenitna in the 1920s. For this ideological direction, the selection of authors of modern Russian literature was made according to the criteria of closeness to European culture and the continuation of the traditions of Russian classics (I.G. Erenburg), while writers from the ideologically opposite camp were given a negative assessment or were not noticed at all (V.V. Mayakovsky). Some writers, in turn, were “torn apart” by the opposing camps, attributing their views to them (S.A. Yesenin, E.I. Zamyatin). Classical Russian literature was also presented with elements of bias; there was a rapturous attitude towards F.M. Dostoevsky, N.V. Gogol, it was their traditions that were emphasized in the work of modern Russian writers, while reviews about A.N. Ostrovsky were cool, and N.A. Nekrasov wasn’t touched on at all. |
