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. The secret of his survival—which shaped this form of Soviet subjet—forces scholars to ponder questions of ethics, over and above questions of lesser significance pertaining to the specific strategies of this survival per se (these latter questions do not, however, supercede the first, but rather add a historical dimension to their universal significance)
