Summary/Abstract
SummaryBelinsky wrote that the past helps us to better understand the present and suggests the future to us. By absorbing national trends in the artistic heritage and reflecting new phenomena in reality, our literature in the first years after September 9th paved the way for the later artistic peaks of our contemporary artistic creativity. Naturally, it exhibited a number of historical features - it bore the stamp of a comprehensive upsurge, breathed with the pathos of emotional display, resorted to a poster depiction of mass enthusiasm. It also had significant conquests. Works of art from that time still excite us today with their civic power, which has become a fruitful tradition in our literature. They conquer us with their active, effective, revolutionary humanism. The literature of those years and in the field of artistic mastery is an example that can be imitated in the days of our time.Keywords: литературата, новата, действителност
