Topic: Konstantin Batyushkov


  
 [No title]   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
Konstantin Batyushkov was born in Vologda, north of Moscow, to an old gentry family.
Konstantin Batyushkov died on July 7, 1855, in a different Russia from the country he had lived in when he was still a poet.
As a poet, Batyushkov himself did not constitute an outstanding figure, but his importance lay in the fact that he exerted a significant influence on Pushkin in his youth and was instrumental in the transition from Derzhavin and his age to the new poetry of Pushkin.

 Literature < Culture < VOLOGDA
The penury of the Vologda literature in the 18th-19th centuries accounts for lack of serfdom on the territory of the region, and consequently absence of the nobility that introduced European culture in Russia.
But the poet Konstantin Batyushkov (1787-1855) born into a prominent noble family is an exception.
The son of a gubernia prosecutor, Batyushkov grew up in Danilovskoye, graduating from a private boarding school of St.Petersburg.

 Tracing Russia's Past and Present in Vologda
A well-intended but ill-advised decision led in 1987 to the erection of a monument to poet Konstantin Batyushkov and his horse on a small plaza between the approaches to the cathedral and the banks of the Vologda River.
One of the most talented poets of Russia's early 19th-century "Golden Age," Batyushkov had a long connection with Vologda, and he is buried at the Spaso-Prilutsky Monastery to the north of the city.
No one would begrudge him a monument, but placing this oversized sculptural group so close to the cathedral has a jarring effect that breaks the union between the cathedral and its natural setting.

 TRANS Nr. 15: Jeremy Howard (School of Art History, University of St Andrews, Scotland): 'Imaging the Kalmyk'
The pros-and-cons interpretation offered by Konstantin Batyushkov in the first review of an exhibition in Russia was itself significant, leading as it did to a mixture of interpretations of the critic's own position and a shift in appreciation that represented a challenge to the monopoly of Neo-Classicism by a Romantic view.
In the wake of the Napoleonic War, as observed by Batyushkov in 'A Walk to the Academy of Arts', Russia was ripe for this change.
