Abstract
The article covers the problem of studying the evolution of futurological ideas in Russian literature from V. Odoyevsky to F. Dostoevsky and their influence on the later views on the future society and the future man in the literature of the 1920s-1930s. The relevance of the topic is determined by both the increased general interest in Russian culture and literature of the 1920s and the1930s, and the new interpretations emerging in the year of the 200th anniversary of Dostoevsky and connected with the reception of the writer’s ideas in the post- revolutionary literature, especially in the texts by the “forgotten” authors – V. Kirillov, J. Okunev, V. Itin, I. Kataev, etc.
The scientific novelty of the article consists in establishing possible connections between F. Dostoevsky’s ideological and artistic world and the field of ideas of the 1920s and the1930s, including not only literature, but also painting (Alexander Labas) and architecture of Russian constructivism and the avant-garde (Georgy Krutikov, Ivan Nikolaev, Ivan Leonidov, Yakov Chernikhov and many others).
