Биография писателя Идзуми Кёка (1873–1939) отразилась в таких мотивах его произведений, как ностальгические воспоминания о старом Эдо, растерянность и жизненные искания молодых интеллигентов начала периода Мэйдзи. Особенности стиля Кёка позволяют говорить о влиянии на писателя западной литературы — французской, итальянской, русской. Соединение романтической новеллы и плутовского романа у Кёка оказало немалое влияние на последующее развитие ...

Профессиональный (и в целом — жизненный) путь Дзиги Вертова начинался с успехов и даже ...
