metadata.value: As befits a proper Renaissance, the revival of Russian poetry in late 19th — early 20th century
  was marked by an increasing interest in Greco-Roman antiquity. The vigorous and enthusiastic
  exploration of classical subjects, motifs and topoi, from accurate stylization to radical rethink ing, emerged as an important feature of Russian modernist poetics. It is thus not surprising
  that the last decades have seen multiple and various investigations into classical reminiscences
  in Silver age poetry. The author of this polemical survey aims to draw attention to the vulnerable
  aspects of such research practices and to formulate a “code of conduct” for studying intertextual
  parallels between ancient authors and the Russian poets of the early Novecento. The
  paper was written in conjunction with the 25th anniversary of the methodologically important
  but not sufficiently well-known book by M. L. Gasparov Antichnost’ v russkoi poezii nachala
  XX veka (“Antiquity in the Russian Poetry of the Early 20th Century”). It examines such questions
  as the development and limits of knowledge about antiquity among the Russian litterati,
  the link between reception studies and the history of classical education, the ranking and
  weighing of intertextual parallels, the search for the intermediate sources, the importance of
  translations of ancient authors into European languages, the need to incorporate philological
  scholarship contemporary to the author and not the researcher, etc. The discussion is interspersed
  with case studies proposing new (or complementing old) interpretations of the poems
  by Ossip Mandel’shtam, Vladimir Shileiko, Vasilii Komarovskii et al.
