Author(s): Murašov, Jurij

Abstract

This article is an attempt to combine a general media theory with amicroanalysis of textual strategies. Firstly, I will offer some broad theoretical considerations on the role of media in Soviet culture. Secondly, I will try to show how the birth of Socialist Realism in Russia is linked to the radio and how its understanding can be based on a specific poeticsof radiophonia. Finally, the third part will present a short microanalysisof Gorky’s editing work on a manuscript sent to him by a young writer. This analysis will show how radiophonic poetics work in the concreteliterary praxis.
