This collection of essays, which should appeal both to Slavists and students of comparative literature, deals with twelve major twentieth-century Russian poets who, for varied reasons, became estranged from the Soviet state. Some stayed in Russia to become inner émigrés, others chose to go into exile in the West. One less hope, one more song (Akhmatova’s words), stands both for their suffering and often their deaths, but also for their humanity and poetic achievement.
The poets in question are Anna Akhmatova, Osip Mandelshtam, Vladimir Mayakovsky, Alexander Blok, Sergey Esenin, Nikolay Gumilev, Vyacheslav Ivanov, Marina Tsvetaeva, Vladislav Khodasevich, Boris Poplavsky, Boris Pasternak and Joseph Brodsky. The whole collection is followed by a cultural perspective of the Russian 19th and 20th centuries.

Table of contents:

Chapter 1: Conscience in Anna Akhmatova’s Poetic Work
Chapter 2: Marina Tsvetaeva’s Mystic Path
Chapter 3: Vladislav Khodasevich’s Nightmare World
Chapter 4: Boris Poplavsky: Poet of Unknown Destination
Chapter 5: The Ebb of Joseph Brodsky’s Poetic Inspiration
Chapter 6: The Search for the Cosmic Connection in Twentieth-Century Russian Poetry
Chapter 7: Nikolay Gumilev’s The Pillar of Fire
Chapter 8: Alexander Blok’s The Twelve
Chapter 9: Alienation in Sergey Esenin’s Poetry
