Braginskaia, a classicist and folklorist, stimulated renewed academic interest in Freidenberg's ideas on myth, ancient folklore, and literature. In 1973 Lotman published an article titled \"O.M.

These works revealed a new zone of truthfulness to us about the thirties and the people of those years, not to mention about ourselves, those alive today, in the sense that we all came out of that era—with its aura of grandeur and drama and the spiritual residue it left in our souls and in our memory.
