By analogy with Pushkin’s Golden Age, the era at the turn of the XNUMXth and XNUMXth centuries was called the Silver Age and was marked by the appearance of an unprecedented number of bright names in Russian poetry: Balmont and Bryusov, Gippius and Merezhkovsky, Sologub and Annensky, Blok and Akhmatova, Gumilev and Mandelstam, Tsvetaeva and Pasternak, Yesenin and Mayakovsky and dozens of others. But not only did this era give rise to a great variety of poetic talents. The Silver Age was characterized by a special romantic attitude, an amazing atmosphere that reflected spiritual uplift and new trends that affected both Russian literature and Russian painting, philosophy, music and theater - it was a real “cultural renaissance,” as Nikolai Berdyaev wrote. This collection presents with sufficient completeness the most brilliant poets of the Silver Age, whose work has stood the test of time and has become a property not only of the era of the past, but also part of Russian literature as a whole.
