Abstract

The article examines a previously undiscussed connection between Alexander Pushkin’s poetry and the work of the English Romantic poet H. K. White (1785–1806). It reveals the hitherto unidentified sources of the unfi nished poem V nachale zhizni shkolu pomniu ia… (White’s poem Childhood) and Chairman Walsingham’s Hymn in Honor of the Plague from the Little Tragedy Pir vo vremia chumy (White’s poem Winter Song). We also briefl y describe the historical and literary context of Pushkin’s interest in White.
