Joseph Brodsky and Anna Akhmatova. In a deaf-mute universe
14.99 €
Brodsky and Akhmatova are iconic names in the history of Russian poetry. In his Nobel lecture, Brodsky called Akhmatova one of the "sources of light" to whom he owed his poetic destiny. Encounters with Akhmatova and her poems connected Brodsky to the poetic tradition of the Silver Age.
St. Petersburg philologist Denis Akhapkin examines in his book episodes in the life and work of the two poets, showing the profound relationship between the two poetic systems. Life events are intricately refracted through the prism of poetic lines, becoming facts not just of biography, but of literary biography - and some features of Akhmatovsky's poetic language are clearly heard in Brodsky's poems. The book combines a conversation about the fate of poets with a conversation about specific poems and their slow reading.
