Walker, Barbara B. Maximilian Voloshin's 'House of the poet': Intelligentsia social organization and culture in early 20th century Russia.
By tracing the life and career of influential Russian intellectual Maximilian Voloshin (1877-1932), this study shows how kruzhok culture led the Soviet intelligentsia into an increasingly intimate economic and therefore political relationship with the state in the early Soviet period.

In the course of my paper I will focus on the interesting role, reserved for Crimea in collecting of many important literary personae of the Modernist culture that were arriving to its borders from the two Russian capitals.
Following the seminal depictions, given to Crimea by Maximilian Voloshin as regards the importance of its unique mythopoetical image, the proposed paper focuses on the specificity of the ways this peculiar ‘literary project’ (Koktebel’s ‘Dom Poeta’) was built up on the Crimean soil.
There will be shown the particular usefulness of the historical ‘Crimean text’ for the various ‘life-creation’ (in German “lebenskunst”) attitudes, articulated by the major figures of Russian Modernism, who were dwelling from time to time within the Crimean hospitable shores.
