This volume opens the Collected Works of the brilliant writer, literary scholar, critic, film scholar, and screenwriter Viktor Borisovich Shklovsky (1893–1984). His paradoxical style of thought, aphoristic writing, and unique intonation made him a fascinating witness to the era, a subtle explorer of artistic language, and simultaneously an innovator. The goal of this fundamentally new collection is to showcase the full richness of Shklovsky's diverse literary legacy. It brings together little-known, archival, and never-reprinted texts scattered across many hard-to-find publications.

The first volume contains over 70 such works. The conceptual core of this volume is the historical figure of the Revolution, which permeates Shklovsky's autobiographical and theoretical texts, his letters and reviews, his struggle for a new artistic form and new forms of everyday life, and his articles on literature and cinema.

The second volume (Figure) will be devoted to the memoir-autobiographical dimension of Shklovsky’s work.
