Note"The article raises the question of typology of Russian literary postmodernism. The author argues that since its very birth, Russian postmodernism has been represented by two opposing trends which he terms conceptualism and neo-baroque. The author suggests that these two trends began at the end of the 1960s and developed simultaneously in the underground culture of the 1970s-80s. Sharing the major features of postmodernist poetics, they have different origins, have developed opposing artistic strategies, and have shaped philosophical concepts. However, in the 1990s both these trends of conceptualism and neo-baroque reached the point where poetics and artistic ideas began to merge, and the bi-polar structure of Russian literary postmodernism began to dissolve. The later hypothesis is illustrated in the article by the comparative analysis of novels written by the two leading writers of each of these trends – Goluboe salo (The Blue Fat) by Vladimir Sorokin and Generation P by Viktor Pelevin (both written in 1999)."
