Briefly about A. A. Blok
AA Blok is the greatest poet of the 20th century, a vivid representative of the “silver age”, as Andrei Bely, “Man of the Century”, will say about him. Vyacheslav Ivanov said: “I consider him the first lyricist of our time… Blok is Prince Hamlet, and like every prince it’s a lot of nobility, it’s a great poetic beauty, but it’s not a king… it’s brilliance, it’s a joy” .
AA Blok was fond of poetry as early as childhood and adolescence, as he grew up in the highly educated family of the Beketovs. Childhood and adolescence was held in the Shakhmatovo estate near Moscow, where the future poet wandered with his grandfather, comprehending the beauty of Russian nature. The character of the boy’s upbringing was free, as the aunt and biographer of the poet MA Beketov points out, “rather the education of feelings, rather than the will.” This explains the main features of Blok’s character: dreaminess, developed imagination, enthusiasm. This perception of life determined the early work of the poet. Alexander Blok seems to be in the “fog of the morning”, not distinguishing his dreams, fantasies from reality, so the world around him has no clarity, certainty, it seems unsteady, vague. In the youthful first poems of Blok many allegories, erased allegories. Early poems were later included in the cycle “Ante lucem”.
