Subject: временной дистанции
Эта поэтика обнаруживает себя на временной дистанции, когда общая пластика минувшей эпохи отчетливо проявляет себя как нечто, превосходящее любые личные усилия или идеологические нюансы внутри эпохи.

What does временной дистанции mean in this context? Thank you!

time period?

The frase literally means something like "From a distant time perspective". I.e. it means that some time should have passed, that time to be much longer than the duration of the epoch in question. E.g. it is difficult to examine the late Soviet period as an "epoch" now, when we are srill likely to focus on too many internal differences within that "world". In 50 years, however, it will be easier to feel some general spirit of that epoch.

OMG, yes, I totally misread the sentence. I interpreted the word "obnaruzhivaet" as "finds" itself, meanwhile it means "reveals" itself! Thank you, Maksym! Thank you very much!
