"Dvoichatki" is a neologism coined by Osip Mandelstam: the poet understood this term as two poems growing from one "root" and connected by a deep kinship. The book by literary scholar Mark Altshuller contains articles devoted to just such texts: in them, he compares poems or prose by one or two authors, analyzes conscious (and sometimes subconscious) echoes and polemics of different poets, and sometimes draws completely unexpected literary parallels. The author's research focus brings together the figures of A. Pushkin and N. Zabolotsky, F. Dostoevsky and C. Dickens, M. Gorky and B. Kornilov, D. Kedrin and A. Voznesensky. Explaining why the last remark in the printed text of Boris Godunov changed or why Mandelstam called Batyushkov an arrogant person, M. Altshuller reconstructs the twists and turns of literary existence and revives our understanding of Russian intellectual life in the 19th and 20th centuries. Mark Altshuller is a literary scholar, Doctor of Philology, and Professor of Slavic Studies at the University of Pittsburgh.
