The Silver Age of Russian Literature... This is the customary name for the period in the history of Russian poetry that falls at the beginning of the 20th century.
A specific chronological framework has not yet been established. Many historians and writers from all over the world argue over this. The Silver Age of Russian literature begins in the 1890s and ends in the first decade of the 20th century. It is the end of this period that causes controversy. Some researchers believe that it should be attributed to 1917, while others insist on 1921. What is the rationale for this? Started in 1917 Civil War, and the silver age of Russian literature as such ceased to exist. But at the same time, in the 1920s, those writers who created this phenomenon continued their work. There is a third category of researchers who argue that the end of the Silver Age falls on the period from 1920 to 1930s. It was then that Vladimir Mayakovsky took his own life and the government did everything to strengthen ideological control over literature. Therefore, the time limits are quite extensive and are approximately 30 years.
As in any period in the development of Russian literature, the Silver Age is characterized by the presence of various literary movements. They are often identified with artistic methods. Each trend is characterized by the presence of common fundamental spiritual and aesthetic principles. Writers unite in groups and schools, each of which has its own programmatic and aesthetic orientation. The literary process develops following a clear pattern.
DECADE
At the end of the 19th century, people begin to abandon civic ideals, finding them unacceptable to themselves and society as a whole. They refuse to believe in reason. The authors feel this and fill their works with individualistic experiences of the characters. Appears more and more literary images which express the socialist position. The artistic intelligentsia tried to disguise the difficulties real life in a fictional world. Many works are filled with features of mysticism and unreality.
MODERNISM
Underneath this trend lie a wide variety of literary movements. But Russian literature of the Silver Age is characterized by the manifestation of absolutely new artistic and aesthetic qualities. Writers are trying to expand the scope of a realistic vision of life. Many of them want to find a way to express themselves. As before, Russian literature of the Silver Age occupied an important place in the cultural life of the entire state. Many authors began to unite in modernist communities. They differed in ideological and artistic appearance. But they have one thing in common - they all see literature as free. The authors want it not to succumb to the influence of moral and social rules.
At the end of the 1870s, Russian literature of the Silver Age was characterized by such a direction as symbolism. The authors tried to focus on artistic expression and used intuitive symbols and ideas for this. In the course were the most sophisticated feelings. They wanted to know all the secrets of the subconscious and see what is hidden from view ordinary people. In their works, they focus on candle beauty. The symbolists of the Silver Age expressed their rejection of the bourgeoisie. Their works are imbued with longing for spiritual freedom. This is what the authors missed so much! Different writers perceived symbolism in their own way. Some are like an art direction. Others are like theoretical basis philosophy. Still others - as a Christian teaching. The Silver Age of Russian literature is represented by many symbolist works.
In the early 1910s, the authors began to move away from striving for the ideal. Their works were endowed with material features. They created a cult of reality, their heroes were distinguished by a clear view of what was happening. But at the same time, writers avoided describing social problems. The authors fought to change lives. Acmeism in Russian literature of the Silver Age was expressed by a kind of doom and sadness. It is characterized by such features as intimacy of themes, unemotional intonations and psychological accents on the main characters. Lyricism, emotionality, faith in spirituality... All this is characteristic of the Soviet period in the development of literature. The main goal of the acmeists was to restore the image to its former concreteness and take the shackles of fictitious encryption.
FUTURISM
Following acmeism in Russian literature of the Silver Age, such a direction as futurism began to develop. It can be called avant-garde, the art of the future... The authors began to deny traditional culture and endow their works with features of urbanism and machine industry. They tried to combine the incompatible: documentaries and science fiction, to experiment with linguistic heritage. And, we must admit that they succeeded. The main feature of this period of the Silver Age of Russian literature is contradiction. Poets, as before, united in various groups. A revolution of form was proclaimed. The authors tried to free it from content.
Imagism
In the Russian literature of the Silver Age, there was also such a direction as Imagism. It manifested itself in the creation of a new image. The emphasis was on metaphor. The authors tried to create real metaphorical chains. They compared the most diverse elements of opposite images, endowed words with direct and figurative meaning. The Silver Age of Russian literature in this period was characterized by shocking and anarchic features. The authors began to move away from rudeness.
The Silver Age is characterized by heterogeneity and diversity. Particularly traceable peasant theme. It can be observed in the works of such writers as Koltsov, Surikov, Nikitin. But it was Nekrasov who caused a special surge of interest. He created real sketches of rural landscapes. The theme of the peasant people in the Russian literature of the Silver Age is beaten from all sides. The authors talk about the difficult fate of the common people, about how hard they have to work and how bleak their life looks in the future. Nikolai Klyuev, Sergey Klychkov and other authors, who themselves come from the village, deserve special attention. They did not focus on the theme of the village, but tried to poeticize village life, crafts and environment. Their works also reveal the theme of centuries-old national culture.
The revolution also had a considerable influence on the development of Russian literature of the Silver Age. Peasant poets took it with great enthusiasm and completely surrendered to it within the framework of creativity. But during this period, creativity was not in the first place, it was perceived in the second place. The first positions were occupied by proletarian poetry. She was declared forward. After the revolution, power passed to the Bolshevik Party. They tried to control the development of literature. Driven by this idea, the poets of the Silver Age spiritualize the revolutionary struggle. They glorify the power of the country, criticize everything old and call ahead for the leaders of the party. This period is characterized by the chanting of the cult of steel and iron. The fracture of traditional peasant foundations was experienced by such poets as Klyuev, Klychkov and Oreshin.
The Silver Age of Russian literature is always identified with such authors as K. Balmont, V. Bryusov, F. Sologub, D. Merezhkovsky, I. Bunin, N. Gumilev, A. Blok, A. Bely. M. Kuzmina, A. Akhmatova, O. Mandelstam can be added to this list. No less significant for Russian literature are the names of I. Severyanin and V. Khlebnikov.
Conclusion
Russian literature of the Silver Age is endowed with the following features. This is love for the small Motherland, following the ancient folk customs and traditions of morality, the widespread use of religious symbols, etc. They traced Christian motives and pagan beliefs. Many authors tried to turn to folk stories and images. Tired of everyone urban culture acquired the traits of denial. It was compared with the cult of appliances and iron. The Silver Age left Russian literature rich heritage and replenished the fund of domestic literature with bright and memorable works.

What is the history of the development of literature in the 20th century?
(The fate of the literature of the 20th century is tragic: the blood, chaos and lawlessness of the revolutionary years and the civil war destroyed the spiritual basis of its existence. The post-revolutionary biography of most poets and writers turned out to be difficult. Gippius, Balmont, Bunin, Tsvetaeva, Severyanin and others left their homeland. In the years “ Red Terror" and the Stalinists were shot or exiled to camps and Gumilyov, Mandelstam, Klyuev died there. Yesenin, Tsvetaeva, Mayakovsky committed suicide. Many names were forgotten for many years. And only in the 90s did their works begin to return to the reader.)
The mood of many creative people the beginning of the 20th century were reflected in the poem by A. Blok from the cycle “Retribution”:
Twentieth century... even more homeless
Even more terrible than life is darkness,
Even blacker and bigger
Shadow of Lucifer's wing.
And disgusted with life
And crazy love for her
And passion, and hatred for the Fatherland...
And black earth blood
Promises us, inflating veins,
All destroying the frontiers,
Unheard of changes
Unforeseen riots...
Late XIX - early XX centuries. became the time of the bright flowering of Russian culture, its "silver age". The rapid breakthrough of Russia in development, the clash of different ways and cultures changed the self-consciousness of the creative intelligentsia. Many were attracted by deep, eternal questions - about the essence of life and death, good and evil, human nature. In Russian literature of the beginning of the 20th century, a crisis of old ideas about art and a sense of the exhaustion of past development will be felt, a reassessment of values will be formed.
The rethinking of the old means of expression and the revival of poetry will mark the onset of the "silver age" of Russian literature. Some researchers associate this term with the name of N. Berdyaev, others Nikolai Otsup.
The Silver Age of Russian poetry (the term in literature is mainly associated with poetry) is the only century in history that lasted a little more than 20 years. 1892 - 1921?
For the first time in literary creativity the expression “silver age” was used by A. Akhmatova in “A Poem without a Hero”. (Epigraph) slide 4(1)
Renewal of literature, its modernization have led to the emergence of new trends and schools. slide 5
The poetry of the Silver Age is diverse: it includes the works of proletarian poets (Demyan Bedny, Mikhail Svetlov, etc.), and peasant (N. Klyuev, S. Yesenin), and works of poets representing modernist movements: symbolism, acmeism, futurism, which are associated with the main achievements of the poetry of the Silver Age, and poets who did not belong to any literary movement.

Slide 7. Symbolism is a literary and artistic direction, which considered the goal of intuitive comprehension of world unity through symbols. Symbolists believed that the poet unraveled the mysteries of the word. A symbol is a multi-valued allegory (allegories are unambiguous). The symbol contains the prospect of a limitless expansion of meanings. Allusions and allegory became a feature of the works of the Symbolists.

Slide 14. What unites all literary movements? Working with a table.
I dreamed of catching the departing shadows,
The fading shadows of the fading day,
I climbed the tower, and the steps trembled,And the higher I went, the clearer they were drawn,
The clearer the outlines were drawn in the distance,
And some sounds were heard around
Around me resounded from Heaven and Earth.The higher I climbed, the brighter they sparkled,
The brighter the heights of the dormant mountains sparkled,
And with a farewell radiance, as if caressed,
As if gently caressing a misty gaze.And below me the night has already come,
The night has already come for the sleeping Earth,
For me, the daylight shone,
The fire luminary burned out in the distance.I learned how to catch the shadows that are leaving
The fading shadows of a faded day,
And higher and higher I walked, and the steps trembled,
And the steps trembled under my feet.
(1894)

Intelligent Explosion
Russian poetry late XIX- the first decades of the XX century is known as the poetry of the Silver Age. The term as such arose after the end of this period, in the second half of the last century. The name was formed by analogy with the term Golden Age, that is, the Pushkin era. And this is deeply symbolic, because the Silver Age of Russian poetry gave the world many bright names. The names of Anna Akhmatova, Osip Mandelstam, Nikolai Gumilyov, Marina Tsvetaeva, Boris Pasternak and others are associated with the poetry of the Silver Age.
Numerous and varied literary movements of the turn of the century as a whole can be called in one word - modernism (from the French "newest, modern"). In fact, modernism was very diverse, there were various currents in it. The most iconic of them are symbolism, acmeism, futurism, imagism. There are also peasant poetry, satirical poetry and other currents.
Art Nouveau in both European and Russian poetry was distinguished by the search for new forms and means of expression. It was a time of creative search, which often led to striking finds. But far from all poets have passed the test of time, the names of many of them are known today only to philologists. Many truly talented poets eventually went beyond the narrow confines of one or another literary movement.
At the turn of the century, Russia experienced a strong intellectual upsurge, which was expressed primarily in poetry and philosophy. The famous philosopher Nikolai Berdyaev wrote about this time as follows: “Much of the creative upsurge of that time went into further development Russian culture and now is the property of all Russian cultured people. But then there was intoxication with a creative upsurge, novelty, tension, struggle, challenge ... "
The poets of the Silver Age were greatly influenced by the philosophical teachings of Berdyaev himself, as well as Solovyov, Fedorov, Florensky with their idea of \u200b\u200bthe eternal divine beauty, the Soul of the World, in merging with which they saw salvation for all mankind, as well as Eternal Femininity. Let's take a look at each trend.
Symbolism. Hints and halftones
It was the first and very significant modernist movement. It originated in France, later spread to Russia. It is typical not only for literature, but also for music and painting.
There are two stages in this literary direction. The first is the "senior symbolists" (Valery Bryusov, Zinaida Gippius, Dmitry Merezhkovsky, Konstantin Balmont and others). Their debut took place in the 1890s. A few years later, symbolism was replenished with new forces and new aesthetic views. "Junior Symbolists" were Alexander Blok, Vyacheslav Ivanov, Andrey Bely.
According to Vyacheslav Ivanov, poetry is "the cryptography of the inexpressible". The value of creativity was seen in understatement, hints, and the symbol was supposed to convey the secret meaning.
Remember the famous Blok lines from the cycle "Poems about the Beautiful Lady", filled with symbols?
I enter dark temples
I perform a poor ritual.
There I am waiting for the Beautiful Lady
In the flickering of red lamps.
In the shadow of a tall column
I tremble at the creak of doors.
And he looks into my face, illumined,
Only an image, only a dream about Her...
In addition to the symbol that conveys the transience of being, great importance Symbolists gave music, therefore, verbal and musical consonances can be traced in their poems. Symbolism is characterized by broad associations with the culture of previous eras.
Symbolism has enriched Russian poetry with real discoveries: the poetic word has become multi-valued, new facets and additional shades have opened up in it. Symbolists used combinations of certain sounds to create an image (the so-called alliteration), as well as a variety of rhythms. An example of alliteration in Balmont is the deliberate repetition of the sound "l":
The oar slipped from the boat,
The coolness is gentle.
But all of the above refers to the external form of the verse. And most importantly, of course, the inner content. The Symbolists raised the question of the role of the artist (in the broadest sense of the word) in the life of society in a new way, made art more personal.
Acmeism. Reached the top
The term comes from the Greek akme, which means "top, highest degree anything." If the symbolists gravitated towards the super-real, the ambiguity of images, then the acmeists - towards poetic accuracy, a chased artistic word. Acmeists were apolitical, topical problems did not penetrate into their work.
The main value for this literary trend was culture, which they identified with the universal memory. Therefore, acmeists often turn to mythological images, plots (for example, Gumilyov - “From a bouquet of whole lilacs ...” and many other poems).
In addition, they were guided not by music, as the Symbolists, but by architecture, painting, sculpture - that is, what implies three-dimensionality, spatiality. Acmeists loved colorful, picturesque, even exotic details.
This literary trend included many talented poets-friends. They called their association "Poets' Workshop". And this was preceded by a scandal. In 1911, in the salon of Vyacheslav Ivanov, where, as usual, writers gathered to present their poems and discuss other people's, a conflict broke out. Several poets, offended by criticism, simply left. Among them was Nikolai Gumilyov, who did not like the criticism of his "Prodigal Son". So, in contrast to the "Academy of Verse", the "Workshop of Poets" was born.
The main rule of acmeists is clarity poetic word devoid of something hazy. Acmeism as a literary trend brought together very talented and original poets - Gumilyov, Akhmatova, Mandelstam. Others from the "Poets' Workshop" did not reach such a high level.
Let us recall the penetrating female lyrics of Akhmatova. Take at least these lines:
She clasped her hands under a dark veil...
"Why are you pale today?" —
From the fact that I am tart sadness
Got him drunk.
How can I forget? He walked out, staggering
Mouth twisted painfully...
I ran away without touching the railing
I followed him to the gate.
Breathless, I shouted: "Joke
All that has gone before. If you leave, I'll die."
Smiled calmly and creepily
And he said to me, "Don't stand in the wind."
The fate of many poets of the Silver Age, including Anna Akhmatova, was not easy. The first husband, Nikolai Gumilyov, was shot in 1921; the second, Nikolai Panin, died in 1953 in the camp; son, Lev Gumilyov, was also imprisoned for many years.
Futurism. At the dawn of PR companies
The name of this literary movement comes from Latin word futurum, which means "future".
If acmeism originated in Russia, then Italy is considered the birthplace of futurism. The ideologist of futurism, Marinetti, saw the task of futurism in this: "daily to spit on the altar of art." Wow statement, right? However, isn't that what many so-called writers and artists do today, who pass off frank disgustingness as a work of art?
The Futurists set an ambitious goal - to create the art of the future, and they denied all previous artistic experience. The poets composed manifestos, read them from the stage, then published them. Often meetings with poetry lovers ended in disputes that turned into fights. Thus, this literary direction gained fame. Familiar, as they say now, a PR move, isn't it? Take at least politicians or representatives of show business who know what exactly will attract the attention of the public ...
The words of the futurists were located completely freely, any logical connections were often violated, it was generally it is not clear what the poet was talking about, what the poet wanted to say.
In fairness, we note that outrageousness was used by representatives of all modernist movements. At the same time, among the futurists, he was in the first place and manifested itself in everything - from appearance(remember the performances of Mayakovsky in his famous yellow blouse) and up to the very creation.
Representatives of this literary trend in Russia are Vladimir Mayakovsky, Velimir Khlebnikov, David Burliuk, Alexei Kruchenykh and others. By the way, most of them were also artists, created posters, illustrations for books.
The main features of futurism: rebelliousness, bold experiments in versification, the emergence of authorial neologisms - that is, words that no one had used before, various verbal experiments.
Here is one of Khlebnikov's poems:
Bobeobi sang lips
Veomi sang eyes,
Pieeo eyebrows sang,
Leeeey - the appearance was sung,
Gzi-gzi-gzeo the chain was sung.
So on the canvas of some correspondences
Outside the extension lived the Face.
It is clear that such lines have remained an experiment. But Mayakovsky became a phenomenon in poetry, including in versification.
His famous "ladder", that is, special location short lines, is still popular today.
Imagism. Passion for young Yesenin
This literary trend, born in the West, arose in Russia after 1917. The name comes from the word image, which is in both English and French and means "image".
The first creative evening of the Imagists took place on January 29, 1919. A declaration with the basic principles of the new direction was read there, and it was signed by Sergei Yesenin, Anatoly Mariengof, Rurik Ivnev and Vadim Shershenevich, as well as two artists. The declaration emphasized that the tool of the master of art is an image and only an image. Say, he, like naphthalene, saves the work from the moths of time.
Here are the lines of Mariengof:
Language
Does not knit in verse
silver bast,
The pen breaks - the poet's faithful staff.
Come and take away the pain. I'll go barefoot.
Come to take away.
The Imagists declared that the content in a work of art is a completely unnecessary thing, if only an image were found. But again, there was more outrageousness in such statements. After all, the desire for figurativeness of the artistic word was, is and will be in any poet, no matter what direction he considers himself to be.
As we have already said, many talented poets only at first entered certain literary movements and associations, and then found their own way and style in art. So, for example, Sergei Yesenin in 1921 noted that Imagism is antics for the sake of antics, and broke with this trend.
Rus' became the basis of unsurpassed Yesenin poetry, small homeland, folklore, peasant outlook.
Many literary scholars single out peasant poetry among literary trends, whose representatives are, in addition to Yesenin, Demyan Bedny, Nikolai Klyuev and others.
One of the directions of poetry at the turn of the century is satirical poetry (Sasha Cherny, Arkady Averchenko and others).
As you can see, the poetry of the Silver Age was very diverse, including numerous literary trends. Something is irrevocably a thing of the past - just like a failed experiment. But the work of Akhmatova, Gumilyov, Mandelstam, Tsvetaeva, Pasternak (the last two, by the way, were outside of specific literary trends) and some other poets really became a bright event in Russian literature, and also had a significant impact on many contemporary poets.
Many poems of poets of the Silver Age are still on everyone's lips today. Take at least the unsolved masterpiece of Tsvetaeva , which is difficult to explain from the standpoint of logic,“I like that you are not sick of me ...” - a romance known to everyone from the film “Enjoy Your Bath ...”.
The fate of a number of poets of the Silver Age was tragic. The reasons are both personal and social. These poets have gone through revolutions, wars, repressions, emigration, preserving the high spirit of true poetry. The work of many of them became known to a wide circle of readers only in the 90s of the last century, since for a long time they were considered prohibited.
