Third, determining the prospects of this kind of motivation toward life and labor activity, along with its compatibility with the transformation of social reality we are experiencing today.

But he viewed modernity through the prism of Russian folklore, so his characters are half-human, half-fairytale monsters. And he was imbued with a ...
