Title: None Critique. Publicism. Memory. Volume II by E. Yu. Sidorov
Description: This collection brings together critical and publicistic works spanning various years, alongside a section devoted to the daily life of a minister striving—together with the artistic community and like-minded individuals from Russia’s provinces—to shield domestic culture from budget austerity and the onslaught of a “wild” market. The book argues that the necessity of poetry is not merely a thirst for verse but a cultural call to action. According to Sidorov, the crisis of state and society is aimed squarely at the individual, and the deification of pragmatism often reduces literature and art to commodities, the artist to a dealer, and the poetry of life to mere survival. The discussion centers on poetry in its broadest sense—on the need for spiritual revival of both the individual and society through culture. This volume offers a reflective, critical perspective on the intersection of art, politics, and market forces in contemporary Russia.
