The article analyzes 1950s--1960s poetry of “Lianozovo school” (especially Igor Kholin and Genrikh Sapgir) in connection with the ideology of scientific and technological progress (STP) and its influence on the aesthetic system of XX century Russian literature. This paper examines how the hallmarks of early 20th century literature (which later influenced the Soviet official aesthetics) are deconstructed along with Soviet rhetoric and ideological clichés, typical for the second half of the century. Considering how exactly the sociocultural context was reflected in the poems of Sapgir and Kholin, the author tries to unravel the features of the unofficial literature aesthetic system in its connection with the linguistic abstraction, the everyday environment and the mediating role of “technical imagination”.
