  • Afanasy Afanasyevich Fet - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series Afanasy Afanasyevich Fet - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Afanasy Afanasyevich Fet(5 December 1820 - 3 December 1892) Afanasy Afanasyevich Fet, later changed his name to Shenshin was a Russian poet regarded as one of the finest lyricists in Russian literature. <b>Biography</b> <b>Origins</b> The circumstances of Afanasy Fet's birth have been the subject of controversy, and some uncertainties still remain. Even the exact date is unknown and has been cited as either October 29 (old style), or November 23 or 29, 1820. Brief biographies usually maintain that Fet was the son of the Russian landlord Shenshin and a German woman named Charlotta Becker, an that at the age of 14 he had to change his surname from his father's to that of Fet, because the marriage of Shenshin and Becker, registered in Germany, was deemed legally void in Russia. Detailed studies reveal a complicated and controversial story. It began in September 1820 when a respectable 44-year old landlord from Mtsensk, Afanasy Neofitovich Shenshin, (described as a follower of Jean-Jacques Rousseau's ideas) returned to his Novosyolky estate from the German spa resorts where he had spent a year on a recreational trip. There he had rented rooms in the house of Karl Becker and fell for his daughter Charlotta Elizabeth, a married woman with a one-year-old daughter named Carolina, and pregnant with another child. As to what happened next, opinions vary. According to some sources. Charlotta hastily divorced her husband Johann Foeth, a Darmstadt court official, others maintain that Shenshin approached Karl Becker with the idea that the latter should help his daughter divorce Johann, and when the old man refused to cooperate, kidnapped his beloved (with her total consent).

    FOLIA ORIENTALIA — BIBLIOTHECA VOL. I — 2018 DOI 10.24425/for.2019.126132 Yousef Sh’hadeh Jagiellonian University [email protected] The Koran in the Poetry of Alexander Pushkin and Ivan Bunin: Inspiration, Citation and Intertextuality Abstract The Koran became an inspiration to the Russian poet Alexander Pushkin (1799–1837), made obvious in many of his works, such as Imitations of the Koran, The Prophet, and In a Secret Cave. Pushkin studied the translation of the Koran carefully and used many verses of its Surahs in his texts. Many of his contemporary poets and followers were influenced by his poetry, like Ivan Bunin (1870–1953), who continued the traditions of Pushkin. Bunin repeated many thoughts from Koranic discourse and placed them in his poems that were full of faith and spirituality. He wrote many of them at the beginning of the 20th century1, before his emigration to France in 1918, for example: Mohammed in Exile, Guiding Signs and For Treason. It has been noted that Bunin was quoting verses from the Koran to create an intertextual relationships between some Surahs and his poems, showing a great enthusiasm to mystical dimension of Islam. We find this aspect in many works, such as The Night of al-Qadr, Tamjid, Black Stone of the Kaaba, Kawthar, The Day of Reckoning and Secret. It can also be said that a spiritual inspiration and rhetoric of Koran were not only attractive to Pushkin and Bunin, but also to a large group of Russian poets and writers, including Gavrila Derzhavin, Mikhail Lermontov, Fyodor Tyutchev, Yakov Polonsky, Lukyan Yakubovich, Konstantin Balmont, and others.

ABSTRACT This document provides a guide to the rarely performed “Moscow” Coronation Cantata of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky (1840-93) as well as a new choral score with transliterated 1886 text by Apollon Maikov. It draws attention to the musical style of the Cantata, providing insight into the development of the thematic material. It compares the Cantata to Tchaikovsky’s previous compositions such as the 1812 Overture and it explores the link between this work, Mikhail Glinka’s A Life for a Tsar, and Alexei Lvov’s Russian Hymn for the Tsar. Additionally, the document illuminates how the Cantata aided the composer financially in the long run and the impact it left on his own compositions that followed. The document addresses the two text versions found in editions of the Cantata and provides a textual guide to teaching and performing the work. The document culminates with a piano/vocal edition of the Cantata with transliterated text by Apollon Maikov. ii Copyright © 2015 by Olga A.
