This chapter discusses some of the figures responsible for redeveloping the cultural heritage of Russian modernism and the avant-garde and shaping its reception in the post-Stalinist period. Because Stalinism had sought to consign the modernist experience to oblivion, deeming it too complex and problematic, and to substitute its own cultural dogmas, their work proved crucial for defining the modes of poetic development in underground culture from the mid-1950s onwards. The main figures discussed are Anna Akhmatova, Vasilisk Gnedov, Evgeny Kropivnitsky, Igor Bakhterev, Pavel Zal’tsman, and Ian Satunovsky.
