Language: RussianThe place of the 20th century in European culture continues to cause debate among philosophers and historians of art, music, theater, and literature. An international symposium of 1997 in Moscow attempted to summarize some of the cultural achievements of the past 100 years while reevaluating the role of expressionism, constructivism, postmodernism, etc. The authors offer different reference points for the period, citing the Middle Ages or the preceding 19th century as possible relations. The book questions the continuity of ancient and Rennaissance traditions, weighs the viability of a linear versus circular model of historical development. Some of the topics are: Theses on music of the last three decades, Ideas of Kazimir Malevich, Difficulties of avant-garde art in the epoch of postmodernism, An Actor and his screen double, etc.
