Images and Architectonics of the History of the Contemporary Architecture

摘要

The Russian historiography as an independent field of history predictably deals with its own studies of the facts. The established attention to methodological issues of the history of the contemporary architecture would be possible only in case that we can merge the search for the answers to the questions "What?" and "How?" in a single research environment. At that, the affirmative component ("What has been done") fixes a certain problem that has formed in historical methodology as a whole, while the activity related component ("How should it be done?" is viewed on the basis of architectural materials. The study serves as the basis for a comprehensive view of the history of the 20th-century Russian architecture. At that, it is also built-in the context of modern directions in the historical science having an interdisciplinary structure and focused on the contemporary intellectual history issues.
