	Velimir Khlebnikov
		Velimir Khlebnikov, Russian Avantgard, Poetry, Original name VIKTOR VLADIMIROVICH KHLEBNIKOV, poet who was the founder of Russian Futurism and whose esoteric verses exerted a significant influence on Soviet poetry after his death.
		Khlebnikov was a Slavophile who loved Russia and the Russian language; this led him to change his first name from Viktor (of Latin derivation) to Velimir.
		After World War II Khlebnikov was attacked by Soviet critics as a "formalist" and "decadent," and his name fell into complete oblivion.

		Khlebnikov belongs to the period of the Russian Civil War and its euphoric revolutionary aftermath--that brief interval when the dream of contemporary art transforming the future almost seemed possible.
		Khlebnikov's life was unremarkable enough until he embarked upon a literary career, published [in 1910] his most celebrated poem.
		Khlebnikov transcends his period yet is tethered to it by his sublime, or naive, faith in the idea of linear progress in the arts.

	Zangezi Summary
		The protagonist is Khlebnikov’s alter ego, the prophet Zangezi.
		“Khlebnikov’s experiments with the Russian language, viewed from a wider perspective, are actually an effort to discover how language itself ‘grows’ and ‘works.’ His ‘delving’ into roots, as Mayakovsky put it, was a search for the source of the word, a return to the time when the “name corresponded to things”(Kern, 15).
		Khlebnikov’s zaum language was so difficult to understand that the author felt compelled to explicate it with footnotes in the written text.

	Collected Works of Velimir Khlebnikov - R A I N T A X I o n l i n e
		It is not only the quantity of Khlebnikov's work that may provide the reader with a lifetime of amusement and exhilaration; the scope and nature of his vision of the world proves that he was deserving of the titles he and his cohorts bestowed on him, President of Planet Earth and The King of Time.
		These three volumes are not only satisfying because of their literary content, but because the editors have included a thoughtful and informative biography of Khlebnikov, as well as introductions to the different sections of each volume that provide a context for the different styles and forms that Khlebnikov used to explore his world of ideas.
		Embellished on the lid of his coffin by Khlebnikov's affectionate friends was a blue planet earth with the title: "The President of Planet Earth, Velimir I." It is a fitting tribute for a visionary who dared to imagine the unification of all people.

		Khlebnikov was fascinated by typography, or rather, the failure of typography to connect the images of the letters to any real concept.
		Khlebnikov saw that cherep (skull), chulok (stocking) and chashka (cup) all began with ch and all were containers.
		Khlebnikov employs this in another poem, in which he repeats rhyme of the word “chant” with “recant,” “descant,” et cetera.

		Both Velimir Khlebnikov’s “The Radio of the Future” and Bertolt Brecht’s “The Radio as an Apparatus of Communication” envisioned the status of the radio in their era as potentially having a greater impact on the public state in terms of communication.
		However, whereas Brecht called for change and was more-so critical of the medium, Khlebnikov concentrated on the actual possibilities the "radio" harvested.
		However, Brecht was also skeptical of the publics turn to use the radio as he suggested due to his belief that human nature makes the individual reach for pleasure rather than information and that therefore, although the radio was technologically apt, the public was not prepared for it.

		In 1923, Vladimir Tatlin designed, directed, and starred in a performance of Velimir Khlebnikov's play Zangezi that was presented by an amateur troupe at the Museum of Artistic Culture in Petrograd.
		Khlebnikov had died earlier in the year, and the performance was to be a memorial to Tatlin's favorite poet.
		To Khlebnikov's construction of words, where sound was the principle building element, Tatlin attempted to find a counterpart in tangible construction, built with a variety of materials in different surfaces and shapes.

	Jacket 27 - April 2005 - Brian Reed: Locating "Zaum": Mnatsakanova on Khlebnikov
		She investigates the specific words and sounds to which Khlebnikov is drawn, as well as his resulting experiments with slovotvorchestvo, ‘wordsmithery.’ She observes, for instance, that Khlebnikov delights in the similarity between the Russian roots ljub- (‘love’) and ljud- (‘people’).
		The interpenetration of folklore, myth, natural science, and science fiction in Khlebnikov’s writings, Mnatsakanova explains, is intended to bring to light the assorted ways of knowing proper to humanity in all its assorted timeworlds.
		She argues that the near-complete failure of Russian speakers to embrace and promote Khlebnikov suggests that a different dynamic is at work.

		Dubbed "a Columbus of new poetic continents" because of his search for a poetics as diverse as the universe itself, Velimir Khlebnikov is the creator of some of the most extraordinary poems in the Russian language.
		One of the founders of Russian Futurism, Khlebnikov spent his entire brief life searching for a new poetic language to express his convictions about the rhythm of history and the connection between the truth of a poet's language and the cosmic truth about the universe.
		His poetry is characterized by often radical experimentation with language and words, a forceful utopian vision, complex theories of time and history, and multiple poetic personae: from an infantry commander to a Carthaginian war hero, from Cleopatra's paramour to the letters of the alphabet.

		His translations are a pleasure to read for their own sake, independent of the fact that they are successful renderings of challenging explorations by one of the great pathfinders in modern literature.
		It shows that the difficulties in understanding Khlebnikov's works arise not so much from his unusual vocabulary and syntax, but from the complexity of his philosophy, his vision of the world, history, and time; from the complexity of the mythopoeic system which the poet created in his works...Schmidt's [are] masterful rendition[s] of Khlebnikov's verbal experiments.
		Most are presented in a whimsical style that reflects Khlebnikov's marvelous imagination and gift for mythopoeia...[This is] an impressive volume of one of Russia's most erudite and original writers who is only now receiving his due recognition in his homeland.

	Yevgeny Slivkin, Defense Language Institute
		The acceptance of Khlebnikov’s place in the Russian literary canon is characterized by the numerous scholarly works which investigate him as a solid member of the literary establishment (“как нормального поэта”, according to A. Zholkovskii) and by the fact that his poetry became a “reference book” for Russian poets of several generations.
		In a discussion of folkloric genres in Khlebnikov’s poetics, H. Baran writes that the everyday rituals of peasant culture hold more significance for Khlebnikov than the genres that typically attract the attention of writers (fairy tales, byliny, plachi, etc.).
		I argue that the juxtaposition of the figures of Khlebnikov and Kitovras in Chelokon’ is Viktorov’s attempt to simultaneously mythologize and de-canonize Khlebnikov.

		Avantfolk vocal and instrumental composition of Vladimir Martynov with lyrics of Velimir Khlebnikov.
		Night in Galizia 'Night in Galizia' is based on the eponymous poem by Velimir Khlebnikov, a key figure in the Russian avantgarde of the 1920s who, like other major representatives of this movement (Malevich, Stravinsky and Burlyuk), was keenly interested in ancient Slavic folklore.
		Combining a thaumaturgic ancient language with the 'trans-sense' language of the avant-garde creates a new linguistic space in which familiar literary characters are transformed into functions of interacting linguistic fields.

	Russian Futurism
		Among the members of this group was Velimir Khlebnikov (1885-1922), Alexei Kruchenykh (1886-1970), and the well-known 'Poet of the Revolution,' Vladimir Mayakovsky (1893-1930).
		Perhaps the greatest 20th century experimental poet of Russia, as well as the rest of the world, was Velimir Khlebnikov [1].
		Kruchenykh attributed his 'primitive coarseness' to 'the influence of African art' [3], and both he and Khlebnikov developed a poetry which had more similarity to Dada than to their Italian Futurist counterparts.

		It progressed from the status of a simple image through metaphorical and then symbolic stages, becoming at last an image in constant metamorphosis, with a direct, iconic relation to reality.
		Fluid, iconic images abound in the work of the poet Velimir Khlebnikov (1885-1922), the primary focus of this study.
		With many great Russian artists of the period, including Filonov, Kandinsky, Petrov-Vodkin, Malevich, and Matiushin, Khlebnikov shared the belief that art should be “organic” - that is, inseparable from the experience of reality.

	Zaum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Zaum (Russian: заумь or заумный язык) is a word used to describe the daring language experiments of Russian Futurist poets such as Velimir Khlebnikov and Aleksei Kruchenykh.
		Coined by Kruchenykh in 1913, the word zaum is made up of the Russian prefix za- (beyond, behind) and noun um (the mind) and has been translated as "transreason" or "beyonsense" (Paul Schmidt).
		Examples of zaum include Kruchenykh's poem "dyr bul schyl" and his libretto for the Futurist opera "Victory Over the Sun", and Khlebnikov's so-called "Language of the Birds", "Language of the Gods" and "Language of the Stars".

		The second volume of the Collected Works consists of Khlebnikov's fiction (thirty-five short stories, dreams, mysteries, and fanciful folktales), his plays, and his unique supersagas, a syncretic genre he created to encompass his iconoclastic view of the world.
		But it is in the dramatic text that we best see Khlebnikov's struggle to find a workable form for his vision.
		The dramatist reaches even higher in the supersagas Otter's Children and Zangezi, achieving a Wagnerian fusion of action, poetry, history, theory, and the musical rhythms of incantation.
