The Russian Futuristic Experiment: the Language of the Poetic Resistance

The main Avant-garde trend in the first third of the 20th century, Futurism, through its various groups and creativepersonalities,upholds itsown conception of art and creator,strives to give a contemporary image of the world, to reveal the hidden essence of things, the inner relation of the elements. According to Futurism, art is meant to change lives, but not as it seems in the writings of nineteenth-century realists: by influencing the rationaland changing the mind of the reader. The development of a new artisticexpression, in a new poetic language, the use of contemporaryforms of artistic conditionality have become major tasks for the generation of poets and artistsfrom the 1910s. Poet futurists reduce the language of literatureto its traditionalunderstandings,neglect itsinherent rules and laws, because they accept it as something external to the subject, which impedes the expression of its essence. From the depiction of the object to its expression - this is how the break in the creative mind of the futuristic author can be characterized. The linguistic revolution, effected with poetic means by the futurists, isa desperate and utopian attempt to acquire the organic integrity of the world, thirsting for its transformation. Thanks to futurism, the register of poetic techniques was expanded in the 20th century and directions were createdfor the creation ofnew expressive means of writingpoetic text.
