Zamyatin studies in Tambov: results and prospects

The study is devoted to the comprehension of activities of Tambov scientists involved in the study of the Y.I. Zamyatin’s works. We analyze the materials of the “Zamyatin readings” of 1992–2014. We draw conclusion that Tambov literature studies scholars managed to accumulate and generalize a huge bibliographic, historical-literary and linguistic material, structure and comprehend archival material, and analyze the vast Zamyatin’s heritage. Moreover, the prospects of the Tambov science school are obvious: firstly, the further study of the Y.I. Zamyatin’s heritage in the context of both the “near” and the contemporary culture – domestic and western, and secondly, the remaining problematic nature of many issues of Zamyatin studies and primarily related to textology.
