This book collects texts by the art historian Arkady Ippolitov (1958-2023) that were published in various publications of the turn of the century: newspapers, magazines, and museum exhibition catalogs. Inextricably linked to St. Petersburg, they are integrated into the "St. Petersburg text of Russian literature", at the same time forming a portrait of the time, the voice and hero of which was Ippolitov. The time of those who were born in the fifties, studied in the seventies, matured in the eighties, and in the nineties suddenly turned out to be icons of style and rulers of thought. Ippolitov writes about St. Petersburg real and mythopoetic, about St. Petersburg seen through the eyes of the Marquis de Custine and a graduate girl; about the St. Petersburg of the Hermitage and the Okhta skyscraper; about St. Petersburg in cinema and urbanism... The actual becomes history, these texts are read in a new way, but with unflagging interest and admiration.
