Russia experienced a series of revolutions in the early twentieth century. The 1905 Revolution coincided with Russia’s unprecedented cultural Renaissance; the 1917 Revolutions generated radical new forms in literature and the arts; the Cultural Revolution of the late 1920s led to state control of the arts, invalidating the innovation of the earlier revolutions.
