Valerian Pereverzev

Valerian Fedorovich Pereverzev (5 (17) October 1882[1] – 5 May 1968) was a Soviet literary scholar. He and his associates published the 1928 collection Literary Criticism, a controversial key text in what was called the "Pereverzev school."[2]

Pereverzev was born in Bobrov (now Voronezh Oblast). He studied physics and mathematics at the University of Kharkov from 1901 to 1905 but was expelled and exiled to Narym for participating in revolutionary activities. In 1911 he returned to Moscow to study and lecture. After the October Revolution in 1917, Pereverzev worked as a teacher and scholar. He was a coeditor of the Literary Encyclopedia from 1929 to 1930. In 1921 he became a professor at Moscow State University. His work examined the works of Nikolai Gogol, Fyodor Dostoevsky, and Ivan Goncharov. Pereverzev maintained that an author's style is determined by class milieu. Pereverzev died in Moscow.

gollark: I only have something like three installed as far as I know, and they're all broken.
gollark: I'd kind of expect other people to have noticed and reported this if it is actually a general problem with these versions, since I'm using calibre and qt from the repos.
gollark: I tried downgrading it from 5.14.2 to 5.14.1 or something, but that didn't do anything, and I probably can't downgrade further without just reverting all my package versions to a week or so ago, which is not ideal.
gollark: Anyone know why the Qt-using applications (deepin-screenshot, multiMC, calibre) on my laptop recently started segfaulting after I updated my system?
gollark: There *are* already non-docker container tools.
