Exhibitions: Exposition “Russian Sentimentalism: Punctuation Marks” to be mounted in Moscow

On November 1, 2019 the Dal State Museum of the History of Russian Literature (the Ostroukhov House in Moscow) is presenting the exhibition under the title “Russian Sentimentalism: Punctuation Marks”, which spotlights the most emotional movement in the Russian literature and culture.

Visitors get an opportunity to travel to the 18th century – the epoch that witnessed the search for a new language for expressing the entire variety of feelings and emotions. The role of punctuation marks changed – they were used for conveying emotions of characters. The exhibition will be open until January 24, 2020.
