Velimir Khlebnikov (1885–1922) was a poet and prose writer of the Silver Age, a reformer of poetic language, one of the founders of Russian Futurism, an experimenter in word creation and zaum. Alongside his literary pursuits, Khlebnikov was interested in exact and natural sciences, hence his aspiration for word creation and dreams of creating a universal language. Mayakovsky wrote that Khlebnikov had created a whole "periodic system of the word." This collection includes selected poems by the poet-experimenter, the poems "Crane" and "Menagerie," first published in the collection "Judges' Garden," the palindrome "Razin," the drama "I and E," as well as prose materials. Those who speak of Khlebnikov's "nonsense" should reconsider this issue. It is not nonsense, but a new semantic system. Y. Tynyanov
