Each time, turning to Yesenin's poetry, you feel as if with your soul you touched the living beauty of his native Ryazan expanses. Every time when it was especially difficult for him, as a poet and a person, he fell with his soul and heart to his native Ryazan land, regaining life-giving moral strength and energy for his immortal poems and poems about Russia.

Yesenin innovatively boldly fit into the complexly contradictory, heroic, revolutionary new Russia, expressing in his works the mood of many contemporaries:

Come down, appear to us, red horse!

Harness yourself to the lands of the shafts.

…………………………….

We are a rainbow to you - an arc,

The Arctic Circle - on the harness.

Oh, take out our globe

On a different track.

Often the theme of two Russias appears in the poet's work - the outgoing and the Soviet one; she, already clearly indicated by Yesenin in\"Return to the Motherland\", gets its further development in his\"small poems\". \"Soviet Russia \" and \"Russia leaving \" are full of deep meaning, they are capacious and large-scale in thought, they are perceived as epic works of great public tension and at the same time as a personal confessional story of the poet about the most dear and close, exciting him.

A lot of space in Yesenin's work is occupied by the theme of folk life, the images in them are truly artistic, without which we cannot imagine Yesenin's poetry. And the image of a beloved woman, who, unfortunately, could not understand the poet; and Yesenin's grandfather, who\"a rogue city \"\"took away \" beloved grandson; and the poet's sister, together with whom he bitterly mourned the death of their "cherry orchard" in childhood; and of course, the unique image of the Mother, the holy image for the poet, is especially dear and close to us.

You are my only help and joy,

You are my only inexpressible light.

The image of a Russian peasant woman, the poet's mother, is inseparable in Yesenin from the eternal image of the Motherland.

In order to reflect on one's future destiny in such a confessional way and prophetically far-sightedly dream of a steely future for peasant Russia, one must deeply and selflessly love one's homeland.

I don't know what will happen to me...

Maybe I'm not fit for a new life,

But still I want steel

To see poor, impoverished Russia.

The stronger and deeper the feeling of the motherland in the poems, the brighter and more definite the national principle in them, the more universally human they are, and therefore closer to the peoples of other countries and nations. Yesenin's poetry is imbued with sincerity, utmost sincerity, kindness, a feeling of constant concern for the fate of not only his compatriots, but also people of other countries.

Yesenin's work is illuminated by the unfading light of true love for all living things in the world and, at the same time, is close to everyone.

Lovely birch thickets!

You earth! And you, plains sands!

Before this host of departing

I can't hide my anguish.

His poems touch upon the most pressing, most fundamental, truly global problems of our time; he thought with bright hope and faith about the future of Russia, peered painfully anxiously and dramatically into the face of his contradictory time. And at the same time, the theme of the motherland and nature were inextricably linked in his work, often they acted in parallel.

For Yesenin, nature is the eternal beauty and eternal harmony of the world. Gently and carefully, nature heals human souls.

The feather grass is sleeping. Dear plain,

And the lead freshness of wormwood.

No other homeland

Do not pour my warmth into my chest.

The range of thoughts and feelings contained in the poet's poems about nature is enormous. You never cease to be amazed at how the colors, pictures of nature change, to be surprised at the scale of the poet's vision of the ever-changing world. He visibly opened up to the farthest distances the whole modern world around him, in the eternal struggle of human passions, the irreconcilability of good and evil, light and darkness, wealth and poverty.

    I am not a new person, what to hide, I remained in the past with one foot, In an effort to catch up with the "steel army", I slide and fall with the other. Yesenin "My entire autobiography is in verse," Yesenin wrote. The larger the artist, the larger his work, the more original ...

    Reading the poems of Blok and Yesenin, we see that throughout almost the entire work they sang of Russia. Reading Yesenin, together with him we experience an ardent love for the Motherland, for life and all life on earth, we feel a connection with the people, we realize the uniqueness ...

    S. Yesenin is an outstanding Russian poet, whose unique talent is recognized by all. The poet knew Russia from the side from which the people saw it, created a colorful and many-sided image of nature, sang a high feeling of love. The deep inner strength of his poetry, the coincidence...

    The theme of the motherland is one of the main themes in the work of S. Yesenin. It is customary to associate this poet primarily with the village, with his native Ryazan region. But the poet left the Ryazan village of Konstantinovo quite young, then lived in Moscow, and in St. Petersburg, and beyond ...

Lyricism of Sergei Yesenin's poetry


In the 20s of the twentieth century, Yesenin experienced an upsurge in creative activity. He turns out to be almost the only poet who continues to create lyrical works. The situation at that time was such that many Soviet writers generally denied the existence of lyrics in the light of the revolutionary era. Sergei Yesenin, one might say, in spite of everything, proved that lyric poetry does not contradict the existing situation in the country. Rather, on the contrary, it is time for people to leave their weapons and pay attention to the beautiful, the eternal. The poet's lyrics are distinguished by deep psychologism, maturity, and are also impeccable in terms of artistic design.
The lyrical works of Sergei Yesenin are full of clear images that indicate the feelings and experiences of the author, reveal the beauty of the human soul: “I am wandering through the first snow, in my heart there are lilies of the valley of flashing forces ...”. Yesenin was, to some extent, an innovator in Russian literature. For him, characters are unusual images for that time. Only in this author “evening drew black eyebrows”, “golden foliage swirled in pinkish water on the pond, like a light flock of butterflies with fading flies to the moon.” When creating poems, Yesenin uses various artistic techniques. For example, the poem “I don’t regret, I don’t call, I don’t cry ...” is characterized by both the originality of the form and the novelty of the content. Rhetorical appeals give the poem amazing emotionality: “Vagabond spirit, you are less and less ...”, “My life? Or did you dream about me? Reading the poem, one can feel the author's sadness, some temporary doom: "Everything will pass like white smoke from apple trees." Yesenin understands that everything ends sooner or later, as his youth is now passing. The past is both beautiful and already inaccessible: "Oh, my lost freshness, riot of eyes and flood of feelings." This poem is also characterized by emotional song negations, personifications and symbols. Quite realistic thoughts are combined here with metaphorical images. The feeling of sadness sounds in many works of Sergei Yesenin. Often his poems reflect personal dramas, experiences, and also reveals the time in which the poet had to live and create.
At the same time, the author accepts everything that falls to his lot. Faith in justice, in the spiritual strength of a person does not give a chance to pessimism. Therefore, Yesenin's poems sound more life-affirming than vice versa.
In the well-known poem "The golden grove dissuaded ..." reveals the difficult psychological state of the author. From the first words, a vague anxiety is felt. The grove not only dissuaded them, but dissuaded them with "birch, cheerful language." Here one can clearly see the grief of the author about something past, about the past days. With each line, the sadness becomes deeper: “And the cranes, sadly flying, no longer regret about anyone”, “A fire of red mountain ash burns in the garden, but it cannot warm anyone.” Inevitably, time flies quickly, nothing can stop it, but everything is going as it should be. Yesenin's metaphors immerse the reader in an amazing world of images: "A hemp plant with a wide moon over a blue pond dreams of all the departed." Yesenin said that "the life of the image is huge and spilled." This is what he proved with each of his works. In the cycle of poems "Persian Motives" he uses elements of melodious verse: frequent sound repetitions, the use of interrogative and exclamatory sentences, which in turn creates certain intonations, ring construction of stanzas, repetition of a line within one stanza. Often, simple rhymes are combined with complex components that carry the main semantic load: "and a cry in a rake - and meek songs." Of many of Yesenin's poems, his reverent attitude to color is noticeable. You can even highlight the author's favorite colors - blue, gold, blue. In the ancient Russian color tradition, the symbolism of these colors is clearly defined. The poet is a real artist. He sees May as blue, and June as blue. The heart can become a golden block, and wild youth is a golden daredevil.
Many of Yesenin's poems are dedicated to women. Love for the poet is an inexplicable and bright miracle: "The one who invented your flexible figure and shoulders, put his mouth to the bright secret." A wonderful feeling, according to the poet, can heal any, even a disappointed soul. Yesenin's love lyrics are filled with a variety of emotions. This is the joy of a new meeting, and the impulse, and sadness, and longing for the beloved and despair. In recent years, the theme of love merges in Sergei Yesenin with the theme of the Motherland. The poet's happiness and love are possible only in his native land, in the circle of close and loving people. The image of the mother is like through all the work of Yesenin. A mother is not only a person who gave life, but one who generously endows her children with song talent. For a poet, this is the closest person. The author rewards her with epithets: sweet, kind, old, tender. In the poem "Letter to Mother" Yesenin fully expresses his son's feelings:
You are my only help and joy, You are my only inexpressible light.

What is dear to me about Yesenin's poetry.

Oh Russia, crimson field

And the blue that fell into the rivers

I love to joy and pain

Your lake longing.

Yesenin's poetry ... This is a wonderful, unique and at the same time painfully simple and familiar to us world!

October 3, 2015 marks the anniversary of the birth of this extraordinary poet. From an early age, Yesenin turned his attention to the beauty of his native land, saw and noticed what our eyes could not see. Already in childhood, Sergei realized that man and nature are inseparable from each other: a person cannot exist outside of nature, and it would be nothing without a person.

To the pinnacle of his fame, this folk poet rose from the country “where the peasants mowed and sowed their bread ...” Yesenin said about his childhood, spent on the rich natural beauty of the Ryazan land, Yesenin said:

I was born with songs in a grass blanket.

Spring dawns twisted me into a rainbow.

These lines exude freshness, health and natural beauty. Sergei Yesenin, like no one else, could talk about the "country of birch chintz", where there are "chipped leaves and gold grass." Nature in his poems is multi-colored and animated: "the bird cherry is sleeping", the fir-trees are "mournful". Many of the images found in his poetry are drawn by him from the origins of folk art: from ditties, riddles that abounded in his grandmother's speech, from folk songs that his mother loved to sing and knew many of them. All this, thanks to the tender soul of the poet, was cast into lines full of love for the Russian land:

Beloved edge! Dreaming of the heart

Stacks of the sun in the waters of the womb.

I would like to get lost

In the greens of your bells.

He was subject to any turns of speech, he was fluent in the language and often proudly said: “Language is me!”

One can imagine how hard it was for him, vulnerable and impressionable, to merge into the "chiseled, honed rhythm" of poets that dominated the twenties. No wonder that, faced with the "mass of fighters", the young poet trembled. Young and naive, Yesenin dreamed of a revolution as the arrival of something extraordinary, he thought that everything would change immediately, smart and humane people would rule the country, that everything bad and dirty would cease to exist. But in reality, of course, everything was not like that ... More than before, scoundrels, sycophants-poets who wrote such verses "what you need" bred. It was difficult for a person with a pure soul and a vulnerable conscience in this crowd. No less difficult was Yesenin and the change in the tastes of the public. She now had no time for "pearl dawns" and "crimson fields", with her "acute social consciousness, she demanded such poets as Mayakovsky. Yesenin understood that he needed to break himself for the sake of time, to adapt, as many others did, but this was too alien to him.

And then, probably, in a fit of despair and doubt, he wrote a confession poem "I am the last poet of the village." Deeply experiencing his disappointment in what is happening around, the poet begins to drown out his longing with wine. This personal tragedy is revealed in the cycle of poems "Moscow Tavern". But, realizing that this is not a way out, that he is simply wasting precious time, Yesenin decides to stop the useless and harmful occupation for his soul:

And I already say not to my mother,

And in a strange and laughing rabble:

"Nothing! I tripped on a stone

It will all heal by tomorrow.”

But at that time, Ippolit Sokolov, previously unknown to anyone, appeared among the critics who had so bred. Having unsuccessfully tried himself in the field of poetry, he changed into a critic on the go. And he directed his critical fire primarily at Sergei Yesenin. As soon as the poet read something from the stage, young Hippolyte would immediately grow up after him. He claimed that Yesenin had nothing of his own, all the images were allegedly taken from the German poet Rilke. He was not embarrassed that Yesenin did not know German! Perhaps the poet said about him:

If before they hit me in the face,

Now the whole soul is in the blood.

Then, hoping at least for a while to get rid of this vulgarity, Yesenin decides to leave for the Caucasus, where he was always well and warmly received. There is the captivating beauty of eastern nature, the gentle south wind, beautiful girls, but the soul still yearns for its homeland, all thoughts about it:

No matter how beautiful Shiraz is,

It is no better than Ryazan expanses.

During this journey, Sergei realizes that he can no longer do this, either there or here ... It is necessary to decide, especially since he felt that he could be left without a great reader. And since this is the most painful for the poet, Yesenin began to learn to write, focusing on the "revolutionary taste" of the reader. The soul becomes gradually calmer, the "bird cherry blossom" appears in the eyes again. Now he accepts the new Russia, although he does not fully understand it and stubbornly says: "All the same, I will remain a poet of a golden log hut."

At this time, he releases his new books: "Soviet Russia", "Soviet Country". They contain the voice of the new country, its thoughts, hopes and doubts. All these complex feelings are imbued with love for the Motherland, which always burned, tormented and tormented the pure soul of the poet:

I love my homeland

I love my country very much!

He did not create a single poem where at least once he did not mention his beloved Russia. And the poet was always outraged when he was reproached for "narrowness of views", nationalism. Yesenin simply could not imagine himself without his country. His work began and ended on it, in it - everything, and without it - nothing. You can retreat from everything, he believed, but not from the Motherland. And the poet defiantly said to Mayakovsky: "Russia is mine, you understand - mine!"

This is what Yesenin's poetry is dear to me - this mortal, chronic love for the Motherland, which personified for him both his mother, and his beloved girl, and the future ...

Yesenin was and will remain my favorite poet. That's who for me, really, "is more alive than all the living." He did not want to die so much, he loved life so much, although it did not work out happily:

And on this gloomy earth

Happy that I breathed and lived.

He passed away young, unusually handsome, with gentle and kind eyes, the “Ryazan cornflower” of Russian poetry. He is gone, but his unique song word lives on. It would seem that everything Yesenin talks about in his poems, he talks about himself. But all this affects and should excite every Russian person. We should all learn from this folk poet to love our native land, to love implicitly, recklessly, seeing the miraculous in the simple beauty of the Russian land, as he, the last poet of the “golden log hut”, could do it:

Goy you, my dear Russia,

Huts - in the robes of the image ...

No end in sight -

Only blue sucks eyes.

Why is Yesenin's poetry close to us? and got the best answer

Answer from PersikoVa сountess - Valkyrie ©[guru]
Yesenin's poetry is a wonderful and wonderful unique world! A world that is close and understandable to absolutely everyone without exception. Yesenin is a great poet of no less great Russia; a poet who rose to the heights of his skill from the depths of folk life. His homeland is the Ryazan land, which fed and watered him, taught him to love and understand what surrounds us all - nature! Here, on Ryazan land, for the first time Sergei Yesenin saw all the beauty of Russian nature, which he told us about in his poems. From the first days of his life, Yesenin was surrounded by the world of folk songs and legends:
I was born with songs in a grass blanket.
Spring dawns twisted me into a rainbow.
In the spiritual form in Yesenin's poetry, the features of the people were clearly revealed - its "restless, daring strength", scope, cordiality, spiritual restlessness, deep humanity. Yesenin's whole life is closely connected with the people. Perhaps that is why the protagonists of all his poems are ordinary people, in every line one can feel the close connection of the poet and man Yesenin with the Russian peasants that has not weakened over the years.
Sergei Yesenin was born into a peasant family. "As a child, I grew up breathing the atmosphere of folk life," the poet recalled. Yesenin was already perceived by his contemporaries as a poet of "great song power". His poems are like smooth, calm folk songs. And the splashing of the wave, and the silvery moon, and the rustle of the reeds, and the immense blue of the sky, and the blue expanse of the lakes - all the beauty of the native land was embodied over the years in poems full of love for the Russian land and its people:
O Rus - raspberry field
And the blue that fell into the river -
I love to joy and pain
Your lake longing...
“My lyrics are alive with one great love,” Yesenin said, “love for the motherland. The feeling of the motherland is the main thing in my work.” In Yesenin's poems, not only "Russia shines", not only the poet's quiet confession of love for her sounds, but also expresses faith in a person, in his great deeds, in the great future of his native people. The poet warms every line of the poem with a feeling of boundless love for the Motherland.
From Yesenin's poems, the image of a poet-thinker, who is vitally connected with his country, arises. He was a worthy singer and a citizen of his homeland. In a good way, he envied those "who spent their lives in battle, who defended a great idea," and wrote with sincere pain "about days wasted in vain":
'Cause I could give
Not what he gave
What was given to me for the sake of a joke.
Yesenin was a bright personality. According to R. Rozhdestvensky, he possessed "that rare human property, which is usually called the vague and indefinite word" charm "... Any interlocutor found in Yesenin something of his own, familiar and beloved - and this is the secret of such a powerful influence of his poems".
From childhood, Sergei Yesenin perceived nature as a living being. Therefore, in his poetry, an ancient, pagan attitude to nature is felt. The poet animates her:
Schemnik-wind with a cautious step
Creasing leaves on road ledges
And kisses on the rowan bush
Red ulcers to the invisible Christ.
Few poets see and feel the beauty of their native nature like Sergei Yesenin. She is sweet and dear to the heart of the poet, who managed to convey in his poems the breadth and boundlessness of rural Russia:
See no end and edge -
Only blue sucks eyes.
Through the images of native nature, the poet perceives the events of a person's life.
The poet brilliantly conveys his state of mind, drawing for this purpose simple, to the point of genius, comparisons with the life of nature:
I do not regret, do not call, do not cry,
Everything will pass like smoke from white apple trees.
Withering gold embraced,
I won't be young anymore.

Answer from Maxim Bublik[newbie]
Yesenin's poems are a sincere confession of his romantic soul, which attracts, first of all, by the manifestation of the best human feelings. The attractive power of Yesenin's poetry lies precisely in this piercing sincerity.
In the early poems of Yesenin, images of Russian peasants appear. His men complain about the drought, “taking off their hats, praying and sighing,” and the fishermen sing “somewhere in the distance, at the break of the river, an ancient song.” The poet describes the village life, shows the hut, where “soot curls over the damper”, “it smells of loose drachens”, “hairy puppies crawl into collars”. It was here, among peasant life, that Yesenin's childhood passed, and all this is dear to him. Nature in peasant life is part of everyday life, and therefore Yesenin’s sun is a cart wheel, clouds are cows watering the fields with their milk. And we feel in these images the poetry of village life, the beauty of working people. Yesenin grew up among the expanses of Central Russian nature, and she taught him "to love everything in this world that clothes the soul in flesh." The poet's early poems are a declaration of love for his native nature, the desire to dissolve in it:
Beloved edge!
Dreaming of the heart
Stacks of the sun in the waters of the womb,
I would like to get lost
In the greens of your bells.
In nature, the poet sees a source of inspiration, he feels himself a particle of nature.
Song lyrics had a great influence on Yesenin's work. From an early age, he heard folk tales, sayings, riddles, wonderful songs his mother sang to him. That is why many of Yesenin's early poems were written in the song genre. It was folklore that strengthened his feeling of love for the people, for the homeland. Yesenin's early poetry is full of religious images. Later he will say: "I would gladly refuse many of my religious poems and poems, but they are of great importance as a poet's path before the revolution." And this is another fact in the biography of Yesenin, which was reflected in his work. After moving to Moscow, and then to St. Petersburg, Yesenin's work took on a new direction: the poet turns to the origins of the past, trying to explain the events of the present. Already in the "small poem" "Comrade" the image of a worker going to a deadly fight appears, and in the dramatic poem "Pugachev" the poet depicts a major peasant uprising. In the poem “The Song of the Great Campaign”, Yesenin seeks to tell the history of the last two centuries of Russia. Yesenin's pre-revolutionary work was marked by the search for his own concept of the world and man, which the revolution helped the poet to finally formulate. Having witnessed the events of the revolution, seeing the changes taking place in the country, Yesenin deeply felt the inner mood of the people. It was reflected in the cycle "Moscow Tavern". The poet, experiencing together with the people, cannot determine his place in life, suffers from the consciousness of spiritual duality. The poem “Confessions of a Hooligan” became the way out of his pain. Here Yesenin revealed himself as a man of great soul, warm-hearted, sympathetic, concentrated, thinking about his fate. In Yesenin's poems and poems of this period, there is a constant and convinced faith in Russia, in the great future of its people. But they also sound disturbing sorrow for the old village close to the heart:
I stayed in the past with one foot,
In an effort to catch up with the steel army,
I slide and fall another.
Yesenin called himself "the poet of the golden log hut." He felt like “the last poet of the village”:
Not alive, alien palms,
These songs will not live with you!
Only there will be ears-horses
About the owner of the old grieve.
The invasion of civilization into the village makes the poet think about the future of the Russian village, the fate of peasant Russia. This is seen as an inseparable connection between Yesenin and the origins of ancient Russia, with its peasant soul.
A significant role in Yesenin's work was played by his large trip abroad. The West disappointed the poet, here he did not find inspiration.
