Mikhail BakhtinMikhail Mikhailovich Bakhtin (November 17, 1895 (new style)-1975) wrote influential works in literary theory and literary criticism. He was born in Orel, Russia. Key concepts associated with Bakhtin's works include dialogism, heteroglossia, the carnivalesque, and chronotope. Much of Bakhtin's work centered on interpreting the novel form. For many years he had problems publishing due to the repressive political reality of the USSR. His work therefore only gradually became known outside of Russia. As a literary theorist, Bakhtin emerged out of the school of Russian Structuralism, but attempted to understand the method of literary meaning in dialogue as a series of structures inherent in the text and culture surrounding the text. Major works Problems of Dostoyevsky's Poetics (1929) The Dialogic Imagination: Four Essays by M.M. Bakhtin Marxism and the Philosophy of Language Speech Genres and Other Late Essays Popular Culture in Middle Ages and the Renaissance: the context of Franois Rabelais Rabelais and His World (1968) External link Bakhtin, Mikhail Bakhtin, Mikhail Bakhtin, Mikhail Bakhtin, Mikhail
