Содом и Психея. Очерки интеллектуальной истории Серебрянного века

Rate this book
Дополненное переиздание книги, произведшей сенсацию в середине 1990-х годов. В ее фокусе — интеллектуальные искания предреволюционных и революционных лет, как они выражали себя в народной религии, социальной мысли, формах сексуальности, высокой литературе. Героями книги являются такие разные фигуры, как политик Григорий Распутин, поэт Александр Блок, психолог Лев Выготский. История литературы неотделима от религии, политики и культуры. Тексты отражаются друг в друге, но их игра влияет на реальное поведение людей; поэтому археология текста, выявляя скрытые в нем уровни, выводит за его пределы — в историю.
