Ранние работы по истории русской поэзии XVIII века

This edition contains the early works of the largest specialist in the history of Russian literature of the 18th century. G. A. Gukovsky. Exploring Russian poetry of this period, G. A. Gukovsky in the 1920s based himself on the ideas and analytical tools of Russian formalism. The formal method in his studies was modified and adapted to the tasks of studying literature in its infancy. The published works constitute that part of the scientist's creative heritage that remains most relevant and has a stimulating effect on modern research. His research on the controversy between Lomonosov and Sumarokov, the Sumarokov school, early Derzhavin, Russian elegy and anacreontics, the conceptual foundations of Russian classicism, are included in the treasury of Russian philology and are an indispensable tool for both literary historians and philology students.
