Speaking about the impact of Fielding on the next generation of writers, kou turns to the poetics of the works are not only evident in the case of Dickens, Beckett and Brecht, but also of Flaubert — an approach to literary studies is not the most traditional.

However, the interest Zweig to the shape of PETN can be explained not only by the fact that the latter developed the art and literary methodology: Ten, among other things, was a historian and wrote the monumental work "the Origin of modern France".

Events unfolded rapidly: in the early 1970s, Vargas Llosa defended the same thesis, and in the middle of the punched garcía márquez savory slap in the front of journalists. It is still unclear, from-for what quarrel writers — whether because of the women, whether because of the fundamentally different views on the policy of Fidel Castro. To establish a relationship, they failed, but despite this, Vargas Llosa is still considered one of the most authoritative researchers of the works of Marquez.

In his work, the writer analyzes the essay of French philosopher-deconstructivist Jacques Derrida related the concept of "society" and "democracy," and argues that, for Derrida, the economy is a cunning tool with which the state government controls the people. It would seem that where Derrida with his postmodern tediousness, and Blinko with his adventurous, imbued with black humor novels about the British underground?

Moreover, in this work, he derived the formula “the beautiful is life”, which formed the basis for a realistic worldview in literature.
