A look into the Russian collective mind
16. Januar 2011
Format:Gebundene Ausgabe
Before you can understand and appreciate this epic poem, it is necessary to understand a great deal of the history of the Russian nation. It begins with the reign of the man known to history as Ivan the Terrible and moves through the revolution of 1905 and ends with the overthrow of the last Tsar Nicholas. The history is one of absolute autocrats, where opposition to the authority of the Tsar or communist Secretary General was often met by exile or death.
There are two opposing personality types named Ivan in the poem, the authoritarian represented by Ivan the Terrible and the folk character Ivan the Fool that represents the rising collective consciousness of the people. Ivan the Fool is really anything but that, it is a metaphor for the mass of people that are considered fools by the autocrat and their supporters.
Over time, the people remain largely subservient until the October Revolution of 1917, when the Russian Empire as it had existed for centuries suddenly collapsed. A great many metaphors for the internal inconsistencies of the Russian Empire are used, without some knowledge of history it is easy to miss many of them.
Russians love their poets; theirs is a voice that speaks to the Russian collective personality. In this historical tradition, Yevtushenko captures what many Russians want to say about their land and history, doing it well at a time when the communist government still ruled the land.
