This article was prepared in A.M. Gorky Institute of World Literature of the Russian Academy of Sciences as part of the Russian Science Foundation grant (RSF, project № 21-18-00131, “A.M. Gorky in Germany: the Writer and his Environment in the Socioсultural and Literary-Media Space”).

Abstract:

The article presents evidence of A.M. Gorky’s stay in Germany in 1921–1923. It is traced how his personality and creative heritage, which once became part of world literature, is perceived in a foreign cultural space of the XXI century, namely, a century after Gorky’s stay in Germany in the early twentieth century. The analysis involves material cultural objects (museum complexes, monuments, etc.), onomastic geolocation and elements of memorial culture related to written sources (memoirs of contemporaries, research etc.).

  • Keywords: Gorky, Germany, memorial culture, receptive aesthetics.
