Description and Table of Contents
Description
This volume is a study of Marina Tsvetaeva, described as one of the greatest poets of the 20th century. Tsvetaeva's entire diverse poetic output is examined, emphasizing her contradictory relations to poetic traditions. Particular attention is paid to the appropriation, and frequent distortion of familiar literary material in her lyrical, dramatic and narrative verse. Major chapters are devoted to the long narrative poems, the mature lyric verse and the verse plays, on which very little has so far been written. Extensive quotations appear in the original Russian and the author's own translation.
