Sasha Sokolov's oeuvre represents a milestone in the development of Russian literature; his legacy can be traced in most prose and poetry appearing in post-Soviet Russia. Taking as point of departure the studies and analyses written so far and considering the new suggestions contained in Sokolov's last published book \u003ci\u003eTriptych\u003c\/i\u003e (2011), Napolitano further examines the keystones and the theoretical framework that arise from a close reading of Sokolov's works, trying to systematize the findings into what can be considered as a structured authorial theory of literary creation. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe study demonstrates how Sokolov's oeuvre cannot be fully understood but within the widened perspective of inter-artistic creation: In fact, the writer, a \"failed composer\", as he admits, in his literary work has tried to draw natural and spontaneous connecting lines between the artificially categorized realms of art (word, sound, painting, performance). \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFinally, the book sets forth the first solid analysis of Sokolov's concept of proeziia, not merely a genre nor style of his own invention, but a more significant theoretical reflection of the writer about the role and value of literature, art, creation, and finally beauty.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMartina Napolitano obtained her PhD in Linguistics and Literary Studies - Slavic Studies at University of Udine, Italy.
