Abstract

Ana Hedberg Olenina's book, "Psychomotor Aesthetics: Movement and Affect in Modern Literature and Film," explores the connections between physiological psychology and art in the early 20th century. The book focuses on Russian modernist literature, criticism, and film, but also examines the broader effects of physiological psychology on art and humanities. Olenina analyzes the work of key figures such as Viktor Shklovskii, Yuri Tynianov, Boris Eikhenbaum, Vsevolod Meyerhold, Lev Kuleshov, and Sergei Eisenstein, and explores their relationships with science. The book argues that physiological psychology had a significant impact on modernist culture in Russia, Europe, and America. [Extracted from the article]
