Bakhtin Circle [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy] |
 | | The novelist now becomes the heir of an anti-authoritarian popular cultural strategy to deflate the pretensions of the official language and ideology and institute a popular-collective learning process. |
| | The antecedent of this strategy is not German bourgeois liberalism but Russian populism (narodnichestvo). |
| | Thus the dialectic of mythical and critical symbolic forms which Cassirer outlined in his philosophy now becomes fused with a dialectic of official and popular socio-cultural forces. |
