Friedrich Wolf and Sergey Tretyakov (on the issue of influence and creative confluences)
In the sociocultural context of the 20-40s the comparative overview and analysis of interconnection and ideaimaginative crosstalk of the contexture of F. Wolf’s play «Tai Yang erwacht» (1931) and the articleplay and homonymous poem of S. Tretyakov «Roar, China!» has academic novelty. Ideological and imaginative influence of the works by M. Gorky, Vs. Vishnevsky, A. Fadeyev on esthetic views of F. Wolf is proved. It is concluded that the articulation and developing of Chinese theme in German socialistic drama, and F. Wolf’s drama in particular, is diversifying according to the political, ethical and aesthetic orientations of the playwright.
