Abstract

This article is dedicated to the distinctive features of A.I. Solzhenitsyn’s self-determination in the context of 20th-century culture. The ties and interactions of his artistic system with Russian and world classical art, modernistic poetics, and the socialist realist canon are analyzed. The evolution of the mysterial‒epic origin in the writer’s prose is emphasized. The final part of the article considers the current state of mastering the scientific editing of Solzhenitsyn’s legacy. The article is based on the report of V.V. Polonskii at a meeting of the Presidium of the Russian Academy of Sciences (RAS) on December 13, 2018.
