Yesenin Revolution Biography

On the green hills. But with each line everything is heard in the poem "Red Calling". But in any case, it is important that the author himself classifies the time of their creation by March-April year 111 11-which means at least he wanted to move them as close as possible to the February line. It was a impulse, but Yesenin clearly sought to quickly respond to February, to be among the first - perhaps the first poet of the revolution.

But most of all in spring poems it is not even surprising how soon Yesenin responded to revolutionary events, but how rapidly and radically he redrawn his poetics. Not only in the “comrade” the poet hastily adopted the topical “alien” word: “comrade”, “simple worker”, “Marseille”, “equality and labor”, he also pushed away from the usual “Yesenin” word - from well -mastered lexical material, worked out techniques, songs and soft lyricism, already loved by readers.

Recall that before the revolution in Yesenin's verses there was neither the flight of the “steppe mare”, nor gusts for Kitezhgrad. There was nothing to strive for, because God was already present in the poor everyday life of the village. The divine in the previous verses of Yesenin was always there, tangible in the home, native: “in every wanderer a miserable” could hide “anointed by God”, in every poor - trying “people in love” the Lord.

And what? In a month and a half, everything has changed almost beyond recognition. It is no coincidence that the sharp prefix “SL” “waved”, “shot up”, “took a wave”, “all take off and take -off” is forced with such persistence: this is a sign that the old Yesenin world is blown up. Yesenin tries the oratory voice in the "Comrade". But the role of the revolutionary poet demanded a greater - prophetic "voice".

And now, in the “Singing Call”, biblical pathetics are used: the appeals shouting to each other “Rejoice! Yesenin's contradictions were not embarrassed. Yesenin knew how to achieve his: at least from the criticism friendly to him, he soon heard exactly those words that he wanted to hear. Ivanov-Rebel set an example, solemnly proclaiming: the spring poems “appeared in the days of the revolution the only true manifestation of the popular spirit in poetry ...”; “Yes, even in the early days and hours of the revolution, the poet spoke about how“ fell, struck by a bullet, a baby Jesus ...

”” Yesenin. Then they will repeat in every way: “Only one Yesenin noticed on February days that not a“ great bloodless revolution ”occurred, but a dark and tragic time began ...” V.

C, the poem “Comrade”, performed by the author or professional readers, will become an indispensable “nail” of revolutionary concerts and poetry evenings, along with the “twelve” of Blok and the “left -handed march” of Mayakovsky to the October Revolution, Yesenin spoke even faster and louder than on the February.

The resonance from Yesenin’s poems written at the turn - was the stronger that almost all major poets met the coming to the power of the Bolsheviks with a bewildered, wary or directly hostile silence. Further, the then mentor and inspirer of the “peasant button accordion”, 14 Ivanov-Raznik was outraged by the first manifestations of the Bolshevik power: “... the death execution of the free word-it has already begun ...

the dictatorship of one party,“ iron power ”, terror-and they could not continue” Yesenin October events only inspired and crushed. As in February, it was important for him not only to decide - now “entirely on the side of October” Yesenin. Contemporaries, for example, 3.
