Observing the destruction of recently erected constructs, Kobrin reflects on the horror and charms of a melancholy, invariably accompanying the care of the next era. Analyzing today"s London, Moscow, Sichuan and other local contexts of certain canonical plots, reactivates the insights, errors and disputes of long -gone times. The phenomenon of fame, and also the mechanisms of memory and oblivion are the subject of the separate interest of Kobrin: what texts perpetuate certain social achievements or failures, why one plot becomes the prey of mass culture, and from fans of the other, after some century, one can be made up of a “platoon Or, in the best case, half a rib.
