An important collection of Russian Literary Avantgarde is available on
microfiche and facilitates research on all Russian literary avant-garde
schools.  It comprises almost 800 books, periodicals and almanacs most of
them published between 1910-1940, and thus offers an exceptionally varied
and well-balanced overview of one of the most versatile movements in
Russian literature. It contains many rare and intriguingly obscure books,
as well as well-known and critically acclaimed texts, almanacs,
periodicals, literary manifests. of twentieth-century Russian literature
would have been very different. Most works were published in Moscow, St.
Petersburg, Odessa, Irkutsk, Vladivostok, Chita, Khar'kov, Kiev, Tiflis
(Tbilisi), Baku, Berlin, Paris, New York and Harbin (China).

Among the groups included are the Ego-Futurists and Cubo-Futurists, the
Imaginists, the Constructivists, the Biocosmists, and the infamous
nichevoki - who, in their most radical manifestoes, professed complete
abstinence from literary creation. The books in this collection can be
regarded as objects of art, illustrated by famous artists such as
Malevich, Goncharova and Lisitskii.
