Abstract

This article reevaluates the position of Russian Futurism within the broader context of the Russian Poetic Avantgarde. Russian Futurism, a movement that emerged in the early 20th century, marked a significant departure from traditional literary forms and ideologies. Led by influential poets such as Vladimir Mayakovsky and Velimir Khlebnikov, Russian Futurism sought to revolutionize the poetic landscape through experimentation with language, form, and ideology. However, despite its undeniable impact on subsequent generations of poets and artists, questions persist regarding its relationship to other avant-garde movements and its ultimate impact on the trajectory of Russian literature. Through critical analysis and reassessment, this article aims to provide a deeper understanding of the complex legacy of Russian Futurism and its ongoing relevance in contemporary literary discourse.
