This book explores the changing perception of time and space in
avant-garde, modernist, and contemporary poetry. The author
characterizes the works of modern Russian, French, and
Anglo-American poets based on their attitudes towards reality,
time, space, and history revealed in their poetics. The author
compares the work of major Russian innovative poets Osip
Mandelstam, Velimir Khlebnikov, Vladimir Mayakovsky, and Joseph
Brodsky with that of W. B. Yeats, T. S. Eliot, Ezra Pound, and, in
spite of the postmodernist "estrangement" of reality, the author
proves that similar traces can be found in the work of contemporary
American poets John Ashbery and Charles Bernstein. Both affinities
and drastic differences are revealed in the poets' attitudes
towards time-space, reality, and history.
