New e-resource: Russian Avantgarde Online

This post is also available in: Finnish Swedish

Recent Helsinki University Library acquisitions:

Russian Avantgarde Online e-collection represents works of all Russian literary avant-garde schools; represented in it are more than 30 literary groups. It comprises almost 800 books, periodicals and almanacs most of them published between 1910-1940 and thus offers varied and well-balanced overview of one of the most versatile movements in Russian literature.
The collection gives pride of place to the work of such famous Russian poets as Vladimir Maiakovskii, Elena Guro, Velimir Khlebnikov, Alexei Kruchenykh, and artists N.Goncharova,  G. Iakulov and K.Malevich. However, it also includes relatively unknown poets whose work has never been republished.

This comprehensive online collection enables exploration of the literary evolution of Russian Avantgarde literature year by year.

  1. I’d like to have a look at the collection of Russian Futurist books. Could you let me have access to it, please?

    1. The e-resources of the Library are acquired primarily for the students and staff of the University of Helsinki. This is in the licence agreement the Library has signed. Regrettably, we are not allowed to let access to external customers.

      If you are an external customer, you can access the e-resources at the Library premises either by using the computers reserved for visitors or on your own laptop via a wireless HUPNet connection. The customer service desk can provide you with a temporary HUPNet account.
