The concept of the "golden age of Russian poetry" is usually associated with the first decades of the 19th century - a period of its unprecedented flourishing. This expression was used by P. A. Pletnev, who called V. A. Zhukovsky the first in the brilliant galaxy of poets - contemporaries and friends of A. S. Pushkin. Discoveries in the field of poetic language, overcoming obsolete aesthetic requirements were associated with the need to expand the potential of lyric poetry, which addressed the world of the individual - his experiences, his daily concerns or civic aspirations. Poetry acquired the opportunity to reveal the diversity of the world that was previously inaccessible to it, it became high art. Perfection of form, precision of the chosen word, originality of thought and images - these are the criteria that developed in Russian poetry at the beginning of the 19th century and which determined its development for a long time to come. The collection includes poems by V. A. Zhukovsky, A. S. Pushkin, D. V. Davydov, K. N. Batyushkov, K. F. Ryleyev, V. K. Kuchelbecker, A. I. Odoevsky, P. A. Vyazemsky, E. A. Baratynsky, A. A. Delvig, N. M. Yazykov, D. V. Venevitinov, M. Yu. Each of them followed his own path in poetry, leaving us wonderful examples of poetic art.
