А. А. Фет: Материалы и исследования. К 200-летию со дня рождения поэта (1820—2020). IV

Abstract

Compiled to commemorate A. Fet’s bicentenary, the volume «A. A. Fet: Documents and Studies» includes a number of articles that focus on the problems of genre, textual studies and biography, pertaining both to Fet’s poetic and prosaic works. The contributors introduce for scientifi c use a great deal of various documents — from previously unknown Fet’s letters and those of his correspondents (including I. P. Borisov, P. M. Tretyakov, M. N. Kharuzin, and S. A. Petrovsky) to A. Block’s marginalia on the pages of the fi rst edition of Goethe’s «Faust» in Fet’s translation that is found in his library. The volume represents Fet as a poet, translator, publicist, editor, author of memoirs and a farmer, in his family circle and in the circle of his companions of arms during the years of his military service. Of great importance is the scientifi c description of one of the poet’s remaining workbooks. The volume is richly illustrated and supplied with various indices. The book is intended for specialists in the XIXth century Russian literature as well as for a broad audience of secondary and high school teachers, students, researchers, and those interested in Russian culture.
