Il Comitato per lo Studio della Letteratura Contemporanea e i volumi inediti dei formalisti
Abstract
The article examines the corpus of archival documents related to the creation and functioning of the Committee for Contemporary Literature at the Institute of Art History. This academic unit was important for the Formalists because they considered this Committee a platform for uniting scholars with poets and writers. The Institute’s documents contain vital information on the unrealized book projects of the Committee. Among these proposed plans were a collection of reviews by Tynjanov, several volumes of the well-known series Masters of Contemporary Literature, and a collection of papers on contemporary literature by the Junior Formalists.
