Summary

One of the most creative periods of Russian culture and the most energized period of the Revolution coincided in 1913–1931. Clark focuses on the complex negotiations among the environment of a revolution, the utopian striving of politicians and intellectuals, the local culture system, and the arena of contemporary European and American culture.
