Soft cover. Zustand: Good. 1st Edition. 12 Pp Including Covers. Illustrated Children's Book. Wear. Per Wikipedia, It Appears That The Author Is The Distinguished Intellectual Polymath Viktor Borisovich Shklovsky (Russian: Ви́ктор Бори́сович Шкло́вский, (1893 - 1984), Known As A Russian And Soviet Literary Theorist, Critic, Writer, And Pamphleteer. He Is One Of The Major Figures Associated With Russian Formalism. Shklovsky Himself Is Still Praised As "One Of The Most Important Literary And Cultural Theorists Of The Twentieth Century (Modern Language Association Prize Committee); "One Of The Most Lively And Irreverent Minds Of The Last Century (David Bellos); "One Of The Most Fascinating Figures Of Russian Cultural Life In The Twentieth Century". Shklovsky Was Born In St. Petersburg, Russia. His Father Was A Lithuanian Jewish Mathematician (With Ancestors From Shklov) And His Mother Was Of German-Russian Origin. In 1916, He Founded Opoyaz (Obshchestvo Izucheniya Poeticheskogo Yazyka—Society For The Study Of Poetic Language), One Of The Two Groups (With The Moscow Linguistic Circle) That Developed The Critical Theories And Techniques Of Russian Formalism. Shklovsky Participated In The February Revolution Of 1917, But During The Civil War He Opposed Bolshevism Shklovsky Went Into Hiding, Traveling In Russia And The Ukraine, But Was Eventually Pardoned In 1919 Due To His Connections With Maxim Gorky, And Decided To Abstain From Political Activity. His Two Brothers Were Executed By The Soviet Regime (One In 1918, The Other In 1937) And His Sister Died From Hunger In St. Petersburg In 1919. Shklovsky Integrated Into Soviet Society And Even Took Part In The Russian Civil War, Serving In The Red Army. In Berlin, In 1923, He Published His Memoirs About The Period 1917-22 Under The Title A Sentimental Journey In The Same Year He Was Allowed To Return To The Soviet Union, Not Least Because Of An Appeal To Soviet Authorities That He Included In The Last Pages Of His Epistolary Novel Zoo, Or Letters Not About Love. In Addition To Literary Criticism And Biographies About Such Authors As Laurence Sterne, Maxim Gorky, Leo Tolstoy, And Vladimir Mayakovsky, He Wrote A Number Of Semi-Autobiographical Works Disguised As Fiction, Which Also Served As Experiments In His Developing Theories Of Literature. Shklovsky Is Perhaps Best Known For Developing The Concept Of Ostranenie Or Defamiliarization (Also Translated As "Estrangement") In Literature. Among Other Things, Shklovsky Also Contributed The Plot/Story Distinction (Syuzhet/Fabula), Which Separates Out The Sequence Of Events The Work Relates (The Story) From The Sequence In Which Those Events Are Presented In The Work (The Plot). Shklovsky's Work Pushes Russian Formalism Towards Understanding Literary Activity As Integral Parts Of Social Practice, An Idea That Becomes Important In The Work Of Mikhail Bakhtin And Russian And Prague School Scholars Of Semiotics. Shklovsky's Thought Also Influenced Western Thinkers, Partly Due To Tzvetan Todorov's Translations Of The Works Of Russian Formalists In The 1960S And 1970S, Including Tzvetan Todorov Himself, Gerard Genette And Hans Robert Jauss. Shklovsky Was One Of The Very Early Serious Writers On Film. A Collection Of His Essays And Articles On Film Was Published In 1923 (Literature And Cinematography, First English Edition 2008). He Was A Close Friend Of Director Sergei Eisenstein And Published An Extensive Critical Assessment Of His Life And Works (Moscow 1976, No English Translation). Beginning In The 1920S And Well Into The 1970S Shklovsky Worked As A Screenwriter On Numerous Films.…
