"NOT ONLY ABOUT MUSIC": THE WORLD OF MUSIC AND ITS CREATIVE EXPERIENCE IN I. L. SELVINSKY’S LYRICS
Selvinsky’s poetry is inseparable from the world of music, which creative experience covers both the main events of the poet’s life and the Russian history of the XX century, the fate of all the mankind. Music in Selvinsky’s lyrics is a multifaceted topic, wealth of images, a serious reason for reflection on social, moral-philosophical and cultural-aesthetic themes. His lyrical work abounds not only with musical allusions, comparisons, allegories, genres, forms, terms, but also with artistic techniques that bring poetic speech closer to musical art expression.
