 SSRC :: International Dissertation Research Fellowships Program
Ginzburg's reputation has begun to be reappraised with the publication of her notebooks, composed over a period of more than six decades but confined to the desk drawer until the 1980s, when the political climate finally allowed for their gradual release.
Ginzburg published increasing portions of her notebooks until her death, and while more have emerged posthumously, much remains to be explored.
In all her writings, Ginzburg perceived life as infused with aesthetic structures and crafted behaviors that are typically the stuff of fiction.

 Lingua franca -- April 1998
This dispute had little to do with attitudes toward Marxism; instead, it revolved around attitudes toward structuralism.
The two camps in this struggle were known as the "physicists" and the "lyricists." The physicists included Yuri Lotman, Lydia Ginzburg, and the Estonian-based Tartu School of structuralism, which had risen to prominence in the 1960s.
These scholars conceived of literature in terms of its internal systems of signs and codes, and in the post-Stalinist Soviet Union, this seemingly impartial methodology had the advantage of appearing to avoid the dangers of more overtly ideological criticism.

 CONTEXT: Issue No. 15
Likewise, misogyny in the works of Andrey Bely, Velimir Khlebnikov, and Vladimir Mayakovsky sometimes reaches disproportionate levels of hysterical aversion toward anything connected to women.
Such avant-garde writers as Anna Radlova (1891-1949), Olga Forsh (1873-1961), and well-known philologist-formalist Lydia Ginzburg (1902-1990) were forced to avoid women’s issues altogether and focus on masculine issues such as revolt against habitual routine and construction of the new “experimental” reality.
Thus the misogynistic politics of the avant-garde and its disgust toward the female character passed by inertia to the women writers—and within the contexts of social hierarchy, women’s prose was defectively categorized as “second-rate” literature.
