greatest event in the history of Russia of the twentieth century, radically changed her life, could not find its reflection in the works in any way significant artists living in this pivotal era.But for some of them, this topic has become dominant.
Singer Revolution
Many of culture has its own well-established image in the public consciousness.According to tradition, formed in the Soviet period, the name of the poet Vladimir Mayakovsky is inextricably linked with the image of the Russian revolution.And this relationship has a very good reason.The author of the poem "Ode to the Revolution" gave her chanting my entire adult life.He did so vehemently and enthusiastically.And unlike many of his colleagues in the literary workshop, Mayakovsky meant it.Creation came out of his pen, walked out of a pure heart.It was written with talent, like everything created Mayakovsky."Ode to the Revolution" - one of his early works.But it is not discipling, he proved himself a poet in him as a wizard already formed.He has his own style, its imagery and its expression.
What saw Mayakovsky?"Ode to the Revolution" - horror or delight?
This poem was written in 1918 on the heels of the revolutionary events.And at first glance it appears clearly enthusiastic.Yes, a poet with all his heart receives the accomplished revolution.Her inevitability he felt and predicted as early as the very first of his literary experiments.But even a cursory analysis of the Mayakovsky poem "Ode to the Revolution" is not to ignore the glaring contradictions that the author sees in the whirlwind of events.The grandeur dissolved reorganization of the world only emphasizes seemingly quite inappropriate adjectives that rewards ongoing revolution Mayakovsky - "animal", "baby", "a cheap", but, no doubt, "great."Enthusiasm for the process of the birth of a new world does not negate the horrors and abominations which at this place.Reading Mayakovsky, it is hard not to recall the famous dictum of Lenin that "revolutions are not made in white gloves."Lenin knew what he was talking about.And so I knew what to write about.His images, he drew not from the romantic dreams, and of the surrounding reality.
Vladimir Mayakovsky, "Ode to the Revolution."Analysis stylistic features
The first thing that attracts attention is the work - is fragmentary poetic rhythm and seemingly chaotic flow of images.That's just in such composite constructions no chaos or randomness.All that passes before the mind, harmoniously subordinated poetic logic.This poem illustrates good than famous early Mayakovsky."Ode to the Revolution" - one of its software products.It is believed that many of the characteristic stylistic devices borrowed from Mayakovsky European futurist poets of the century.But even if we agree with this statement, we can not give him credit that with some virtuoso brilliance this set of features borrowed applied in Russian poetry.Before visiting her Mayakovsky such synthesis seemed impossible.
From Futurism to the Socialist Realism
it only on the events of 1917 wrote in his work Mayakovsky?"Ode to the Revolution" gives us the basis for a broader interpretation of the poem.In it there is an obvious philosophical meaning.It tells about the changes in society and on the cost of these changes.Reading the works of the poet, it is easy to see the simple fact that so he did not write to almost no one.In Russian literature, Vladimir Mayakovsky - a poet-innovator and revolutionary poet.Its imaging system, a poetic way of thinking and means of expression have opened the main path of development not only for the Russian poetry of the twentieth century, but also for the many aesthetic spheres directly connected with her.Influence of creativity Mayakovsky easily traced and found in many works of art, from painting and drawing to the cinema, inclusive.Even when in the thirties the Soviet regime with a hot iron to burn out everything that deviates from the party line, including futurism and all the other "isms", the importance of the creative heritage of Mayakovsky nobody could be questioned.He attributed to the classics of socialist realism.Therefore, even he could not object to this because of the absence in this world.The death of the poet
Many times it is said that "the revolution devours its children."That is what happened with Mayakovsky.It's hard to find another creator who have so selflessly devoted himself to one theme, "stepping on the throat of his own song.""Ode to the Revolution" was not the only work of the poet about her.But after the victory of the uprising Mayakovsky was completely inappropriate and uncalled new government.He summed up his life with a single bullet.
