  Nobel Prize in Literature 1933 - Presentation Speech
He came from a family of country squires and grew up in the literary tradition of the times in which that social class dominated Russian culture, created a literature occupying a place of honour in contemporary Europe, and led to fatal political movements.

 SUPERNATURAL HORROR IN LITERATURE (1927, 1933 - 1935) by H.P. Lovecraft
Touches of this transcendental fear are seen in classic literature, and there is evidence of its still greater emphasis in a ballad literature which paralleled the classic stream but vanished for lack of a written medium.
Yet such was the thirst of the age for those touches of strangeness and spectral antiquity which it reflects, that it was seriously received by the soundest readers and raised in spite of its intrinsic ineptness to a pedestal of lofty importance in literary history.
A very flourishing, though till recently quite hidden, branch of weird literature is that of the Jews, kept alive and nourished in obscurity by the sombre heritage of early Eastern magic, apocalyptic literature, and cabbalism.

A 1933 photograph of Filippo T. Marinetti shows a man leaning - valise in hand - in some flight or passage, cynical eyes and sneer directed over his shoulder as if in contemptuous regard of some frail past.
This sort of meta-language — language used to describe language itself — is indeed an important feature of modernist writing; that Marinetti often uses a technological metaphor to speak of language does not at all mean that he does not share an understanding of it with the modernists.
His work, however — if nothing else — exposed the radical possibilities contained in art, and left it to future writers — and to his contemporaries, the modernists — to moderate and integrate the forces of danger, purity, upheaval and language into a digestible art.
