Yury Tynyanov managed to do what little master of the arts and sciences could do. Thanks to the author, such scientific categories as poetics, literature, cinema became interesting and fascinating. Of course, it was possible to go the usual way and create a textbook, where even genius works sink in a sea of scholastic arguments. But instead, the readers received a guide to action, in fact an instruction for the independent embodiment of the desire to create, write, and shoot. And in this huge contribution of the very Yuri Tynyanov. Writer, poet, playwright, historian, literary critic, screenwriter Yury Tynyanov lived an interesting life, while remaining an invalid. But this man was so strong that he actually recreated himself and created his own world - the world of Science and Literature.
