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: You can travel by train to London, except it's insanely expensive.
gollark: Not sure where you'd expect it to get the times from, though.
gollark: I can probably program something if you're specific about your requirements.
gollark: There are projects you could do which might *actually* be useful and not too hard to do, and you should consider those instead of trying to blindly ape Windows and stuff for the 129712815261th CC OS.
gollark: <@630513495003103242> Useful "OS"es are hard to develop because they involve somewhat fiddly programming stuff generally, like, well, screen sharing, networking, that sort of thing. If you don't have a decent knowledge base making a useful OS is going to be hard, and OSes, being complex, are not a good way to learn.
