Poeticizing domestic life in M. Kuzmins lyric poetic sequence Fuzyi in a saucer (book Unearthy evenings)

Abstract

The article is devoted to two
main vectors of M. Kuzmins works, as expressed
by his specific perception of ordinary
life and day-to-day small stuff as well as his interest
to exotic things. This subject is pursued
using Kuzmins lyric poetic sequence Fuzyi in
a saucer (1914). Particular attention is given
to the poets interest to Japanese painting and
the XVIII century German art. Analysis of pieces
of poetry is subject to the exposure of Kuzmins
pattern of aesthetics and clarification of
his world-view.
