Marina Tsvetaeva 1
Marina Tsvetaeva 1 Marina Tsvetaeva Marina Tsvetaeva Tsvetaeva in 1925 Born Marina Ivanovna Tsvetaeva 8 October 1892 Moscow, Russian Empire Died 31 August 1941 (aged 48) Yelabuga, USSR Occupation Poet and writer Nationality Russian Education Sorbonne, Paris Literary movement Russian Symbolism Spouse(s) Sergei "Seryozha" Yakovlevich Efron Marina Ivanovna Tsvetaeva (Russian: Мари́на Ива́новна Цвета́ева; 8 October [O.S. 26 September] 1892 – 31 August 1941) was a Russian and Soviet poet. Her work is considered among some of the greatest in twentieth century Russian literature.[1] She lived through and wrote of the Russian Revolution of 1917 and the Moscow famine that followed it. In an attempt to save her daughter Irina from starvation, she placed her in a state orphanage in 1919, where she died of hunger. As an anti-Bolshevik supporter of Imperialism, Tsvetaeva was exiled in 1922, living with her family in increasing poverty in Paris, Berlin and Prague before returning to Moscow in 1939. Shunned and suspect, Tsvetaeva's isolation was compounded. Both her husband Sergey Efron and her daughter Ariadna Efron (Alya) were arrested for espionage in 1941; Alya served over eight years in prison and her husband was executed. Without means of support and in deep isolation, Tsvetaeva committed suicide in 1941. As a lyrical poet, her passion and daring linguistic experimentation mark her striking chronicler of her times and the depths of the human condition. Marina Tsvetaeva 2 Early years Marina Tsvetaeva was born in Moscow, her surname evokes association with flowers. Her father was Ivan Vladimirovich Tsvetaev, a professor of Fine Art at the University of Moscow,[1] who later founded the Alexander III Museum, which is now known as the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts. -

The Lyrical Subject As a Poet in the Works of M. Cvetaeva, B. Pasternak, and R.M
Studi Slavistici x (2013): 129-148 Alessandro Achilli The Lyrical Subject as a Poet in the Works of M. Cvetaeva, B. Pasternak, and R.M. Rilke The human and poetic relationship between Marina Cvetaeva, Boris Pasternak and Rainer Maria Rilke has been one of the most challenging and fascinating issues of Slavic and comparative literature studies for several decades. Many books and essays have been written on the various aspects of this topic1, but it seems to be one of those inexhaustible themes on which scholars will continue to focus their attention for a long time to come. Before proceeding further, let us briefly recall some basic moments of their relation- ship. Reaching its peak in the Twenties, when the three writers exchanged letters and po- ems, their dialogue actually began in the previous decade. The symbolic significance of Pasternak’s first and only meeting with Rilke as a child, which he describes at the beginning of Oxrannaja gramota2, clearly hints at the fundamental meaning of the former’s readings of Mir zur Feier, Das Stunden-Buch and Das Buch von Bilder, and at the importance of their impact on the formation of Pasternak’s unique poetic manner in the years marked 1 The bibliography on this theme is very extensive. For the best, most recent and detailed account of Cvetaeva and Pasternak’s human and poetic relationship see Ciepiela 2006.

1 Introduction Marina Tsvetaeva and Sophia Parnok Were Both Russian Poets Living During the First Half of the Twentieth Century
Introduction Marina Tsvetaeva and Sophia Parnok were both Russian poets living during the first half of the twentieth century. Tsvetaeva is considered one of the most prominent poets of the Silver Age, and is recognized for her innovative and complex style. Parnok is far less well-known, by Russians and scholars alike, and the process of re-establishing her as a figure in Russian literary history began just thirty years ago, with the work of scholars that will be discussed below. What connects these two women is the affair they conducted from 1914 to 1916, and the poetry they wrote chronicling it. This paper endeavors to examine the poetry of Tsvetaeva and Parnok in the context of that relationship, and also to consider how their poetry and thought on queerness evolved afterwards. The theme of Tsvetaeva and Parnok’s relationship, particularly from the perspective of what Tsvetaeva wrote in her Подруга [Girlfriend] cycle, has been treated in a number of studies to date. However, there are three main works which examine both this specific relationship in detail, and the queer sexualities of Tsvetaeva and Parnok throughout their entire lives. Sophia Polyakova is credited both with the re-discovery and rehabilitation of Parnok as a poet worth studying, and of being the first to publish work on the relationship between her and Tsvetaeva. Using poetic analysis and archival research, her book Незакатные оны дни: Цветаева и Парнок [Those Unfading Days: Tsvetaeva and Parnok] puts together a cohesive story about events within the relationship, considering both the experience of the two women as well as that of their social circle. -

The Founding of Modern States Chapter Two the Founding of Non
1 The Founding of Modern States Chapter Two The Founding of Non-Democratic States Richard Bensel Gary S. Davis Professor Department of Government Cornell University Ithaca, New York 14850 Abstract: All modern states claim that they rule by popular consent and that this consent arises out of the state’s commitment to a transcendent social purpose demanded by their citizens. They also claim that both popular consent and the state’s transcendent social purpose emerged from a founding moment when the state’s right to rule was created. In this manuscript, I ask: How does the founding meld the metaphysical belief in the “will of the people,” the granting of sovereignty, and the recognition of a transcendent social purpose into a symbolic act that then enables the state to secure political and social order? Although this melding is more complex than commonly acknowledged for traditional democracies, it is even more complicated for otherwise authoritarian regimes. In those foundings that produce non-democratic states, the justification of the new sovereignty originates in a transcendent social purpose that is both clearly articulated in political doctrine and susceptible to misrecognition if subjected to conventional democratic politics. At the founding, the political party that led the revolution utilizes the form of a legislative assembly to craft a constitution but it is the party itself that manifests the popular will and thus melds sovereignty, social purpose, and the will of the people into the creation of a new state. Note to the Reader The text is obviously much too long. The best way to condense the reading to a manageable size is to treat the three middle sections (this version: on the Russian-pp. -

Dissertation Advisor: William M. Todd Alexandre Gontchar Three Easy Pieces: Tolstoy, Khlebnikov, Platonov and the Fragile Absolute of Russian Modernity Abstract This dissertation shows how three Russian authors estranged and challenged the notion of human freedom as self-determination—the idea that meaningful self-authorship is possible in view of the finitude that every human being embodies under different aspects of his existence, such as the individual and collective awareness of the inevitability of death, as well as the narrative inclusion of any existential project within multiple contexts of history, culture, and language, all of which are always given already. At first glance to be free is to transcend these multiple limits. -
