Literature follows the logic and law of its own. At the turn between the 19th and the 20th century, “the Silver Age”, another flourishing period in Russian literature, came. With the advancement of pluralistic aesthetics in “the Silver Age” after the October Revolution, a literary Renaissance occurred in the 1920's. When Stalin's system became dominant, Russian literature went through a zigzag road of development, as a result of which the rolling stream of literature divided into three tributaries. After Stalin's death, the literati launched a “Unfreezing Movement”. The three tributaries merged again, which sent Russian literature again to the summit of global literature.
