Formulation of the problem. Anyone who has studied the history of philosophy or aesthetics with any attention must recognize that in the course of his research, he often encounters certain terms which are usually considered to be generally understood and which can be translated into any other language without much difficulty through the use of the same word in every case. For the most part we use these terms without any analysis; and if we encounter them in classical philosophy, we often continue to use them for a long time in modern languages in their Greek or Latin form. Some examples of such terms are the words \"structure,\" \"element,\" \"idea,\" \"form,\" \"text,\" and \"context.\" However, the illusion that they are generally understood begins to break down gradually when we study texts of classical literature, and the scholar is often obliged to abandon this illusion and subject many terms or concepts to special historical investigation. Among such terms is \"symbol.\" What could be apparently simpler than t...","PeriodicalId":173745,"journal":{"name":"Soviet Studies in Literature","volume":"56 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1984-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133544348","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}

Therefore, in the present essay we must leave undefined such terms as \"poetry,\" \"painting,\" and \"image\" and consciously put ourselves in the position of thinking uncritically. All such terms are defined in a great many other works, in particular in the works of the author of the present discussion. Waiting for all these terms to be given final definition would mean cutting ourselves off from fruitful poetic, linguistic, and stylistic analysis. We would like to focus attention on only one problem, the functioning of visual imagery in poetry, and discuss this question rather critically—without, however, addressing ourselves to a scientific and critical analysis of the basic terms referred to above.","PeriodicalId":173745,"journal":{"name":"Soviet Studies in Literature","volume":"124 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1984-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122895008","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}

Losev's many years of scholarly work, he has never paid special attention to the theory of culture as such. His research of many decades has been in the areas of literature, mythology, philosophy, logic, aesthetics, art, and language. Yet all his research is imbued with a single and carefully thought out conception of culture and the typology of cultural history. Briefly put, this conception consists in a view of culture as the historical and practical embodiment of actively pursued spiritual values at a given historical period. Anyone who has read Losev closely can think of works devoted to precisely that integral sphere of the development of the classical world where it is difficult to separate out either the material or the spiritual principles. In Losev's view this does not mean that one cannot study the history of material culture or of spiritual culture by themselves. Indeed, they can and must be given separate attention; and Losev himself has devoted many hundreds of pages ...","PeriodicalId":173745,"journal":{"name":"Soviet Studies in Literature","volume":"104 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1984-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126587569","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}

They were written and published fifteen years ago and didn't attract any particular attention or cause any fuss at that time. It's odd that the critics, modifying these or other lines in different ways, somehow thought it possible to avoid paying attention to this fact. As a result, an arbitrary shift of temporal focus occurred: lines taken out of the concrete situation of the atmosphere in which they were written came to be viewed, first of all, as though they had just been written, and, second, as programmatic, a manifesto by the author.

Mayakovsky has quite a few inspired poems about this, as do also, for that matter, his contemporaries – Esenin, Bagritskii, and Tikhonov…. \"To be a poet…is to caress others' souls with the blood of feeling\" are words justified by the life and death of their author.

Following the work of young people is both interesting and instructive because their quests and discoveries often supply us, the older generation, with creative impulses. And one of the main questions which the poets of the older generation ask themselves in their thoughts and natural concern for the future of literature is whether young people can really take up and carry on our poetry's banner of civic spirit alongside the older writers.
