This forum explores the relationship between two major and very different
representatives of Russian turn-of-the-century literature: Maksim Gor'kii and
Vladislav Khodasevich.
Вайсбанд Э., Slavic and East European Journal 2018 Vol. 62 No. 4 P. 663-684
In this essay, I analyze Maksim Gor'kii’s and Vladislav Khodasevich’s attitudes to Russian neo-peasant poetry as a formative aspect of their respective worldviews. Their partly shared approach was one of the underlying factors in their short-lived émigré rapprochement that seemed so unexpected given their different life experiences and literary backgrounds. Both Gor'kii and Khodasevich considered ...

This article suggests a literary analysis of “Renata’s End”, a memoir essay written by V. Khodasevich (1928), one of the key examples for understanding the particular nature of Russian symbolism. It is focused on the interpretation that Khodasevich gave to Petrovskaya’s life abroad. The author of the memoir looks at the life of his character ...

Beginning in the early 1920s, Bolshevik leaders proclaimed the need to radically revise the pre-revolutionary legacy of children’s literature and to create new Soviet books for children. In our paper, we seek to disentangle what factors played a role in the chances of legacy authors and works to be included in the limited selection of ...

This paper is devoted to the influence of Chodasevič’s poetic technique on Mandel´štam’s poetry. In this work we make an attempt to analyze Mandel´štam’s late Novye stichi (“Ne govori nikomu…”, “Kuda kak strašno nam s toboj…” and “My s toboj na kuchne posidim…”), which are connected to each other through the theme of fear. From ...

This article examines Shklovskii’s previously overlooked engagement with a discursive domain we currently tend to refer to as “world literature;” as such, it is an original contribution not just to understanding A Sentimental Journey, arguably the richest part of Shklovskii’s 1920s memoir trilogy, but also to honing a transnational approach to his writing. While Shklovskii’s work has already been discussed ...

n the article, evidence is presented to support the thesis that B. L. Pasternak’s cycle of poems
dedicated to Pushkin, A Theme with Variations, which quite obviously had suggested the title for the
poet’s fourth book of poetry, Themes and Variations, originated as a poetic response to V. F. Khodasevich’s
poem Episode, that the latter read in late ...

With its central image of the old masturbator in the Berlin “underground” restroom, Khodasevich’s poem “Under the Ground” (1923) both shocked and fascinated its readers. Khodasevich’s intervention into two taboo themes in turn-of-the-century European culture—masturbation and public restrooms—is primarily self-reflexive, indicating his anxieties about the ambiguous place and status of a modernist poet and exploring ...

This article is dedicated to the influence of Heinrich Heine on the poetry of Vladislav Khodasevich. Although for Khodasevich the Russian literary tradition was more important than the European tradition, in his lyric poetry tangible influence of Heine’s poetry can be found. However, links to Heine in Khodasevich’s early poetry can be characterized as superficial ...

In this article we will examine the influence of Alexander Herzen, perhaps the most famous Russian émigré of the 19th century, on the worldview of Vladislav Khodasevich and on the poetics of the latter's poetry written in emigration. In this study it will be shown that Herzen's relationship to the Europe of his day and its bourgeois values and political programs was ...

This paper contextualizes Khodasevich’s unfinished poem “On Your New, Joyous Path” (1914–1915) as his poetic response to his precarious Russian-Polish-Jewish self-awareness as well as to contemporary Polish-Jewish tensions. I argue that for both predicaments, Khodasevich proposes an identical solution: the redemptive assimilation into Russian imperial, supranational culture. This vision crystallized during World War I. At ...

The article discusses the poetic formula of Vladislav Khodasevich’s Putiom zerna (Grain’s Way). It is argued that the phrase goes back to the New Testament and is associated with Biblical ideas of timeless values.

This article describes the results of the application of network analysis to “Kamer-furʹerskij žurnal” by V. Khodasevich. The formalization of the contents of Khodasevich's émigré diary makes it possible to characterize the structure of the community of Russian emigrants. Several concepts about central and marginal émigré figures are elaborated by means of network analysis. Besides, the ...

This paper contextualizes Khodasevich’s poem ‘Slezy Rakhili’ (‘Rachel’s Tears’; 1916) and his article ‘Voina i poeziia’ (‘War and Poetry’; 1938) as his responses to World War I and to the Munich agreement, respectively. I contend that the First World War provided the impetus to Khodasevich for starting to write modernist poetry, in which he explicitly ...

The purpose of the article is to offer an explanation of the intertextual density characteristic of the poetry of Russian modernism. Intertextuality is viewed from two perspectives — the reader’s and the author’s. In terms of perceiving the text, intertextuality is not needed to «encode» the meaning of a work (according to Taranovksy’s and Ronen’s ideas, ...

Когда говорят об оценке Степуном творчества Достоевского, то обращаются прежде всего к двум его последним статьям («“Бесы” и большевистская революция», 1957, и «Миросозерцание Достоевского», 1962) либо к рассуждениям в его мемуарах. Между тем первый текст Степуна о Достоевском («О “Бесах” Достоевского и письмах Максима Горького», 1913) вышел в удивительное, я бы сказал, ключевое время (накануне ...
