Abstract
This paper is devoted to two poets of the 1920s, Aleksandr Chachikov and Sergei Tret'iakov. An important theme in the work of both is the East, and especially anti-colonialism and liberation. This theme ranges from Egypt, via India, to China. In Chachikov's poems the emphasis is on the exotic element, whereas Tret'iakov, perhaps not surprisingly, is straightforwardly political in his work about China. A remarkable aspect of both is that the abundant use of foreign words and names recalls the sound experiments of the Avant-Garde.
