'Cultural Studies Seeks to Understand What Lies Beneath the Surface of Everyday Things'
Maxim Zhiganov has been exploring different aspects of sound for many years—first in relation to his native Perm and then on a broader, global scale. In this interview for the HSE Young Scientists project, he talks about sound maps, the special issue of the journal Logos, and why it is important to make the familiar less clear and obvious.

At HSE University–St Petersburg, Experts Discuss How AI Changes Tourist Routes and Cultural Heritage
Neural networks are no longer simple travel assistants; now they decide what to include on the route and what to skip. Artificial intelligence changes how people perceive a place and shapes the image of tourist centres. At the II International Scientific and Practical Conference ’Information Technologies in the Preservation and Promotion of Cultural Heritage,’ researchers discussed who controls algorithmic solutions and in what ways, and whether authentic traditions get lost in them.

Shklovsky as a Technique: Literary Theory and the Biographical Strategies of a Soviet Intellectual

P. 219–235.
Kalinin I.

In the history of Soviet culture, Viktor Shklovsky achieved far more than the status of original theoretician, keen critic and writer who was able to produce literature corresponding to stylistic, or generic, goals he articulated himself. Above all, he constituted a unique and, at the same time, paradigmatic type of Soviet intellectual. This intellectual type was shaped by the extraordinarily severe demands for cultural and political adaptation (and assimilation) dictated by his times.

This article examines V. B. Shklovsky’s Sentimental Journey (1923) as a literary work created in accordance with the conventions of oral narrative. The formal features of the text of Sentimental Journey are used for reassessing the fundamental theoretical theses of Russian Formalism and, in particular, the models proposed by the Formalists for conceptualizing poetic language ...

In the late 1920s and early 1930s, V. B. Shklovsky published two short books: Writing Technique (1927) and How to Write Screenplays (1931).

This article presents an analysis of Shklovsky's ...

Попов С. Д., Новое литературное обозрение 2025 № 192 С. 122–134
As early as the early twenties, the Russian Formalists began to discover ways to describe literary production within the context of various social, economic and institutional factors. However, the Formalists did not use the analytical potential of this discovery only at the level of literary history or literary criticism. In asociological vein the Formalists, especially ...

Leo Tolstoy’s infection theory of What Is Art? (1899) is explored in the article as an early stage of today’s reflection on enactive reading and the reader’s embodied mind in cognitive literary studies. A comparative treatment is given to Tolstoy’s Kholstomer (Strider, 1886) as the perfect sample of the defamiliarization technique (priyom ostraneniia) (Shklovsky 1917) ...

The article considers some trends in Soviet philosophy, which studied myth and mythological consciousness in 1950–70th. Their connection with European myth theories, in particular with French structuralism and German symbolism, is revealed. The conceptions of Aleksei Losev and Mikhail А. Lifshits demonstrate two ways of describing myth in Soviet philosophy of consciousness. A deep connection between Losev’s theory of ...

Настоящий том открывает Собрание сочинений яркого писателя, литературоведа, критика, киноведа и киносценариста В.Б. Шкловского (1893-1984). Парадоксальный стиль мысли, афористичность письма, неповторимая интонация сделали этого автора интереснейшим свидетелем эпохи, тонким исследователем художественного языка и одновременно - его новатором.

Как сделан язык Ленина: материал истории и прием идеологии
Kalinin I., Вестник Санкт-Петербургского университета. Язык и литература 2018 Т. 15 № 4 С. 605–617
В 1924 г. выходит номер журнала «ЛЕФ», целиком посвященный анализу языка В. И. Ленина. Авторами статей, вошедших в этот тематический выпуск журнала, были представители ОПОЯЗа и близкие к ним исследователи. Описание языка Ленина как языка, в котором реализуются «открытые формалистами» законы поэтического языка, становится для опоязовцев легитимной возможностью распространить свою теорию литературной эволюции на область социальной истории ...

The Body of Plot: Viktor Shklovsky's Theory of Narrative
Kalinin I., , in: The Cambridge Companion to Narrative Theory.: Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2018. P. 46–60.
The Russian Formalists’ opposition between story (“a phenomenon relating to the material”) and plot (“a phenomenon of style”) presents the latter as the aspect of the work that not only organizes “the totality of events,” but also organizes them intentionally in order to increase readerly tension. The recombination of story events into a plot (with its interruptions, retardations, and decoys) ...

The article is devoted to the formation of the image of the pre-revolutionary history of Russia on the example of Yuri Tarich's film Wings of Serf (1926).

"Estrangement" in Aesthetics and Beyond: Russian Formalism and Phenomenological Method
Chernavin G., Yampolskaya A., Continental Philosophy Review 2019 Vol. 52 No. 1 P. 91–113
We investigate the parallelism between aesthetic experience and the practice of phenomenology using Viktor Shklovsky's theory of 'estrangement' (ostranenie). In his letter to Hugo von Hofmannsthal, Husserl claims that aesthetic and phenomenological experiences are similar; in the perception of a work of art we change our attitude in order to concentrate on how the things ...
