The article discusses some mechanisms of the influence of these paradigms on the modern literary process. The focus of the authors of the article is the study of the literary process by the example of the work of Andrey Platonov and Venedikt Yerofeyev. Analyzed are the prerequisites for changing the boundaries of the dialogue with different cultures, which have become a spiritual reflection of the world-systemic connections of the modern world.
