Pressestimmen
"Significantly expands our understanding of this great, tragic writer and what it means to be a woman poet." - Olga Peters Hasty, author of Pushkin's Tatiana; "Working with smoking-hot material and completely at home in the scarcely cooler mass of previous scholarship, Dinega knows her own mind." - Caryl Emerson, Princeton University
Kurzbeschreibung
Russian poet Marina Tsvetaeva's powerful poetic voice and her tragic life have often prompted literary commentators to treat her as either a martyr or a monster. Born in Russia in 1892, she emigrated to Europe in 1922, returned at the height of the Stalinist Terror, and committed suicide in 1941. This work focuses on her poetry, rediscovering her as a serious thinker with a coherent artistic and philosophical vision.
