Will the history of literature retain this \"pseudonym\" for it? Will the situation of the 1820s about which Pushkin spoke be repeated? \"The almanacs have become the representatives of our literature,\" he wrote. \"In time, it is they that people will use to judge its progress and achievements.\" I won't hazard a guess. But there is no question that it is precisely the almanacs, along with all kinds of semi- and completely commercial ventures, that are more adroit in realizing the idea of progress that is understood to have priority in free enterprise. And the reasons for this are fairly significant.","PeriodicalId":173745,"journal":{"name":"Soviet Studies in Literature","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1990-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125236677","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

But-to use the late Gorky's publicistic jargon-they turned out to be only \"mechanical citizens\" of Soviet literature, which became a Procrustean bed even for the fanatics of the new world such as Mayakovsky. In the recent post-Stalinist decades, Soviet literature involuntarily usurped the rights to the late classics of the twentieth century, taking them into its ranks after bestowing an executioner's kiss on their faces as though nothing had happened, pouring out crocodile tears, and declaring itself the most humane literature on the face of the earth. Soviet literature was ready to reckon almost all its glorious victims-from Andrei Belyi to Pasternak, from Zoshchenko to Platonov-among the ranks of its own saints. This senile \"humanistic\" gluttony was only a sign of its impotence and decrepitude, of an inner degeneracy characterized by hypocrisy and an utter lack of talent.

On October 23, 1958, the Swedish Academy awarded the Nobel Prize in literature to Boris Pasternak for Doctor Zhivago. Western readers had barely had a chance to read the novel, published in Italy a year earlier; Soviet readers were not to have that opportunity for thirty years more. \"Immensely thankful, touched, proud, astonished, abashed,\" in the words of his cable to Sweden, Pasternak accepted the prize,1 and the \"Pasternak Affair\" exploded. Beginning that very day, and throughout the days that followed, Pasternak was the target of an attack unprecedented in the post-Stalin Soviet Union for its ferocity and venom.

In the half year since its appearance the article has received, on the whole, an accurate and well-deserved response. There are few who have agreed with Urnov, and few have failed to see the thoroughgoing inappropriateness of his opinions and conclusions for the work itself.
