Anton Antonovich Delvig. Works

Delvig Anton Antonovich (1798/1831)—Russian poet, publisher, critic, journalist, one of the closest friends of Alexander Pushkin.

Anton Antonovich Delvig was one of the most remarkable figures in Russian literature of Pushkin's era. Possessing neither the genius of Pushkin, no outstanding talents Batiushkov, or Baratynsky, he nevertheless left its mark in the history of Russian poetry, history of criticism and publishing, and his personality was inseparable from the literary life 1820-1830-ies of Awareness of his real role in literature, rich in shiny names came up with over time: for example, the nearest generation it was not quite clear, and Yes, his first biographer, P. V. Gajewski, with love and diligence collected the materials for his biography, considered them rather as a utility for a future full of biographies of Pushkin. Only in our time Delvig began to be studied as an independent and original poet.

Creativity Delvig difficult to understand. It requires a historical perspective, which can only be judged by its literary discovery. But to understand it, to comprehend the inner logic and regularities, to feel the features of his poetic language — so many ways to approach an understanding of the era, which gave the world Pushkin. The one who will decide on this work will be handsomely rewarded in front of him will be revealed the art and — increasingly — spiritual values, which were replaced by others, but not dead or disappeared and constantly remind myself of our aesthetic consciousness — at least when we listen to the romances by Glinka, Dargomyzhsky, Alyabiev, or M. Yakovleva words Delvig — "the Nightingale", "When soul asks you" etc.
