К вопросу о «Казанской истории» как источнике поэмы М.М. Хераскова «Россияда»

Author(s): Anastasiya Igorevna Zavyalova / Language(s): Russian Issue: 5/2020

M.M. Kheraskov’s epic poem “Rossiada” is devoted to the Kazan Siege by Ivan the Terrible. It is based on the works published by Russian historians, as well on facts from the Old Russian manuscripts. One of the main literary sources of the “Rossiada” is the “Kazan Chronicle”, also known as the “Story of the Tsardom of Kazan”, a famous historical and publicistic story of the 16th century. This hypothesis was introduced as a result of the studies by G.Z. Kuntsevich, U.N. Sidorova, and G.N. Moiseeva. In this paper, the authenticity of the hypothesis was considered. Comparative study of the “Rossiada” and different sources about the Kazan Siege was performed. The Old Russian manuscripts and the “Kazan Chronicle” also contain numerous stories about the Kazan Siege. New facts confirming that the “Kazan Chronicle” was used by M.M. Kheraskov to create the plot of his epic poem were discussed: he drew upon some historical facts, such as about the Tartarian princess Söyembikä and the Kazan voivode Atalyk. The writer imitated the attitude of the author of the “Kazan Chronicle” towards the characters. Therefore, the “Kazan Chronicle” turns out to be the most important source of M.M. Kheraskov’s poem, but not the only one.

With rhymes about the human fate. Philosophy in the poetry of Giacomo Leopardi

Author(s): Aleksandra Koman / Language(s): English Issue: 4/2020

Giacomo Leopardi is one of those authors whose texts oscillate on the border between literature and philosophy. It is true that Leopardi does not use traditional forms of philosophical expression, but the fact is that most of the considerations of the Italian thinker are expressed by the simultaneous conduct of two discourses: literary and philosophical. Leopardi experimented almost every form of literary expression, but he went down in history mainly as a poet, who contained a significant part of his highest beliefs in poetry. The practice of philosophizing through poetry is nothing new in literature, and the various connections between literature and philosophy are almost ancient, but the ongoing discussions in the world of Italian critics about the relationship between Leopardi and philosophy suggest that the reflective lyrics of the famous poet from Recanati are an noteworthy case. This article is a reflection on the use of figures of speech in the process of explaining the worldview by Leopardi, with particular emphasis on metaphor, and on the overall impact of the poetic medium on the presentation and shaping of adopted ideology.

Poetic landscapes of Wilhelm Przeczek

Author(s): Libor Martinek / Language(s): English Issue: 4/2020

Wilhelm Przeczek is a Polish writer who has lived in Karviná, the Czech Republic, since he was born in 1936. He is a member of a Polish minority and he has aimed his literary output at its members and at readers in Poland. Translations into the Czech language are aimed at readers in the Czech Republic. Having made a protest against the intervention of the Warsaw Pact armies into Czechoslovakia in August 1968, W. Przeczek was not allowed to publish and he was dismissed – he had worked as an editor of a Polish paper “Głos Ludu”. In 1970–1977 he worked as an actor, stage director, and dramatic advisor of a puppet show theatre Bajka in Český Těšín, the Czech Republic. In his article, the author deals with poems by W. Przeczek’s on the subject of journeys about Europe. The starting point is local, but a global result.

Je serai gardienne de phare

Author(s): Liliya Gazizova / Language(s): French Issue: 27/2021

Ces poèmes parlent de l’inatteignable, des états momentanés de l’âme, du caractère insaisissable de la vie, de l’amour qui perd face à la liberté ou les circonstances. C’est de la poésie plastique. Elle est caractérisée par une large gamme lexicale, une émotivité restreinte, une simplicité apparente, des fins paradoxales, la richesse des mouvements d’intonation et la cinématographie des images. Pas de « décorations » et d’« effets spéciaux ». Seulement l’énergie transformée par l’harmonie. These poems speak about the unattainable, about momentary states of the soul, about the unthinkable essence of life, about love suffocated by liberty or circumstances. It is a plastic poetry. It is characterized by a large linguistic range, a restricted emotivity, an apparent simplicity, paradoxical ends, a rich intonation and cinematographic images. There are no decorations of special effects. Only energy transformed by harmony.

In the central part of the paper there are some citations from Iqbal’s poetry and prose that prove this hypothesis. Finally, the author presents his concluding thoughts.

IQBALOVA DŽAVID-NAMA

Author(s): Arthur John Arberry / Language(s): Bosnian Issue: 17/2013

Arthur John Arberry (1905–1969), the famous British Orientalist, in the introduction to his translation of Javid-nama talks about the worldwide importance of this work, while bringing opinions of writers and literary critics-Iqbalists who compare this work with the classic works of Persian poetry, which has belonged to the world of literature since long ago. Arberry also provides information about other translations and translators of this work into the languages of the West, talks about the reasons why Iqbal has written his magnum opus in Persian and also about its style and content. Particularly interesting is the opinion of this famous interpreter that he, as his ideal way to which the work is translated from the original to another language, chose the translator’s language as such, and not personal language of the translator.

SOORONBAY CUSUYEV’İN ŞİİRİNDE AYTMATOV’UN KAHRAMANLARI KONUŞUYOR

Author(s): Orhan Söylemez,Döne Arslan / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 50/2021

Alberto Manguel, writer and essayist from Argentine gives many definitions of the “ideal reader” in his book The Reader on Reading; some of which are “Ideal readers not only reconstruct a story but also rewrite it” and "Ideal readers not only follow a story: but also get into it.” Sooronbay fits within these two definitions in his poems. Not only did Sooronbay, who can be defined as a writer-poet/reader, reconstructed the "stories" of novels and stories of Cengiz Aytmatov but also he got himself into the works and heroes. It is also possible to observe that Sooronbay does not watch the stories as an "ideal reader" but agrees with him. Here, we see Sooronbay as an ideal reader of Jamila, Nayman Ana, Yedigey, Akbara, Boston and Bazarbay and his recreation of all these stories and characters. He may well be seen in his newly created the dramatization of the story “Face to face” as Seyde, Ismail, and so on. We may observe him as an ideal reader as he participates in the story.

O POEZIJI ABDULAHA SIDRANA

Author(s): Hadžem Hajdarević / Language(s): Bosnian Issue: 02/1998

Ako bi se u bošnjačkoj pjesničkoj vertikali XX stolječa uspostavljali oni primarni međaši njezine sveukupne jednostoljetne književnostvaralačke uvjerlji vosti, onda bi, uz imena Catića, Kulenovića, Dizdara, neizostavno moralo stajali i ime Abdulaha Sidrana. Od prvih pjesama, objavljenih sredinom šezdesetih, pa do onih ispisivanili posljednjih godina i onih koje, vjerujemo, još ispisuje, Sidran je gradio posve autentični, posve osobni, sidranovski književnički put. Kod njega poezija nije nas tajala kao "čisti slučaj", kao puki nagon da se ovlada nečim nepoznatim i novim, nego je on sasvim dobro znao "šta čini" u času poetiziranja dohvačena sna ili stvarnosti.
