	Osip Mandelstam - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Mandelstam was born in Warsaw, to a wealthy Jewish family.
		Mandelstam's non-conformist, anti-establishment tendencies always simmered not far from the surface, and in the autumn of 1933 they broke through in form of the famous "Stalin Epigram" ("Мы живем, под собою не чуя страны...": "We live, not feeling the land beneath us...").
		The poem, sharply criticising the "Kremlin highlander", was described elsewhere as a "sixteen line death sentence", likely prompted by Mandelstam's seeing (in the summer of that year, while vacationing in Crimea) the effects of the Great Famine, a result of Stalin's collectivisation in the USSR and his drive to exterminate the "kulaks".

	Nadezhda Mandelstam - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Nadezhda Yakovlevna Mandelstam (Russian: Надежда Яковлевна Мандельштам, neé Hazin; 18 October 1899 — 29 December 1980) was a Russian writer and a wife of poet Osip Mandelstam.
		After Osip Mandelstam's second arrest and his subsequent death at a transit camp "Vtoraya Rechka" near Vladivostok in 1938, Nadezhda Mandelstam led almost nomadic way of life, dodging her expected arrest and frequently changing places of residence and temporary jobs.
		After the death of Stalin, Nadezhda Mandelstam completed her dissertation (1956) and was allowed to return to Moscow (1958).

	THE MANDELSHTAMS
		Mandelstam was revered by intellectuals in Russia and the West, and many of them made pilgrimages to her tiny apartment, as Bruce Chatwin did.
		Mandelstam's poetry relies on a complex pattern of echoes, correspondences, and allusions: there are closely knit harmonies within the particular poem and references to a poetic tradition that extends back to the ancient Mediterranean world (Greek, Roman, and Hebrew).
		Nadezhda Mandelstam was not a political scientist, but one can learn from her book how the Stalinist regime functioned and how precisely it terrorized and corrupted people, turning almost every neighbor or co-worker into a potential informer.

	Commentary Magazine - Mandelstam's Witness (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		There is something oddly legendary about the life and posthumous career of Osip Mandelstam, as though he had died not in a Soviet concentration camp in 1938, with a death certificate issued in due form by the totalitarian bureaucracy, but in some shadowy recess of medieval mystery.
		...Mandelstam devotes several intriguing paragraphs to that peculiar crimson caress, connecting it with Rembrandt's painting, The Prodigal Son, that hangs in the Hermitage in Leningrad, in which the figure of the forgiving father is bathed in a reddish aura from his mantle...
		...Mandelstam's sharp lucidity in discussing the events of the past half-century is so immediately impressive that one has to read through most of her thousand pages to realize that her ultimate view of reality is rather eerily otherworldly...

	Moscow Memoirs, by Emma Gerstein
		Nadezhda's memoirs will always remain as a personal account of a dreadful period in Russian history, and the story of a remarkable poet told by the woman who was his most constant companion, and for that they will be justly loved.
		Nadezhda claims that she gave Rudakov original copies of Mandelstam’s most important writings and that Akhmatova delivered into his keeping, “on a sledge”, the entire archive of her first husband, the poet Nikolai Gumilyov, who had been shot by the Cheka in 1921.
		Nadezhda Mandelstam’s most substantial, though unsubstantiated, allegation against “our \[sermonizing\] Lermontov scholar” Gerstein, is that she had burned the only existing autograph of a poem, part of a cycle in memory of the poet Andrei Bely, given into her care after the secret police searches in 1934.

		At times, the Mandelstams suggested that Akhmatova's position was the easier: as a woman she was shielded by her husband; as a poet her work was more readily understood.
		Yet ambiguous as Mandelstam's status might be, until Stalin's famous 1934 order to "isolate but preserve" him, he intermittently enjoyed opportunities to publish and recite his works that were wholly denied Akhmatova, an outstanding poet whose former husband Nikolai Gumilyov, the father of her only child, had been shot as an anti-Bolshevik conspirator in 1921.
		Nadezhda's extraordinary accusations were groundless and she is further criticised for her part in a subsequent dispute, involving Nikolai Khardjiev, the editor of a long-promised Soviet collection of Mandelstam's poetry.

	Osip Mandelstam in TutorGig Encyclopedia
		The poem, sharply criticising the "Kremlin highlander", was described elsewhere as a "sixteen line death sentence", likely prompted by Mandelstam's seeing (in the summer of that year, while vacationing in Crimea) the effects of the Great Famine, a result of Stalin's collectivisation in the USSR and his drive to exterminate the " kulaks".
		Mandelstam was to be banished from the largest cities, but otherwise allowed to choose his new place of residence.
		In the coming years, Mandelstam would (as was expected of him) write several poems which seemed to glorify Stalin (including Ode To Stalin), but in 1937 the literary establishment began the systematic assault on him in print, first locally and soon after that from Moscow, accusing him of harboring anti-Soviet views.

		Mandelstam read widely in biology and the sciences, and both his poetry and critical prose are suffused with images evoking the growth and evolution of organic forms.
		Mandelstam was anguished for a time in the 1920s when he could not write poetry.

	Mandelstam in English
		In this book and its successor, "Hope Abandoned", Mandelstam's widow rehearses her minutest memories of decades before, when, during the convulsive accelerations of Stalin's purges, she and her husband had eked out the afterlife of an NKVD arrest and interrogations, trial and exile - before a second arrest, silence and the poet's death.
		In this silence the work of memory was performed, patiently restoring the biographical record, the complexity of detail, the word; removing the varnish, the emotion, the crude fanfare of 'the thundering glory of ages to come' (poem no. 227) of the Soviet official vision.
		Among the many other details of their life Nadezhda Mandelstam describes her husband's extraordinary creativity, the buzz, the murmur of poetry forming, which would wake him from sleep, or cause him to shake his head as if a drop of water had lodged in his ear.

	NYRB Classics: Selected Poems of Osip Mandelstam
		Osip Mandelstam (1891–1938) was born and raised in St. Petersburg, where he attended the prestigious Tenishev School, before studying at the universities of St. Petersburg and Heidelberg and at the Sorbonne.
		Mandelstam first published his poems in Apollyon, an avant-garde magazine, in 1910, then banded together with Anna Akhmatova and Nicholas Gumilev to form the Acmeist group, which advocated an aesthetic of exact description and chiseled form, as suggested by the title of Mandelstam's first book, Stone (1913).
		Mandelstam's last poems, written in the interval between his exile to the provinces by Stalin and his death in the Gulag, are an extraordinary testament to the endurance of art in the presence of terror.

	Guardian Unlimited Books \| By genre \| James Fenton considers Mandelstam's reading of Dante
		It was dictated by the poet to his wife, Nadezhda Mandelstam, sometime around 1934-35, that is, during the last phase of an itinerant life, written on a pile of grey forms provided by helpful acquaintances (there being no question of acquiring writing-paper).
		The poet's widow describes how, at a point when Mandelstam refers to Dante's need to lean on authority, she refused to write his words down, thinking that he meant the authority of rulers, and that he condoned Dante's acceptance of their favours.
		Here is the passage which caused Nadezhda to set down her pen and place her hand on her knees.

		It should be said right at the beginning: Mandelstam is perhaps the best 20th century poet.
		This anthology of Mandelstam's poems is not perfect only because it is not a collection of his complete works.
		Both Mandelstam and Brodsky are great examples of how true are the verses by Marina Tzvetvaeva: "In this most Christian of all worlds/ All poets are Jews." The perfection of this poetry is an evidence of the fact how great poetry once was - not a long time ago.

		The flimsiest pretexts were often enough to brand someone an "Enemy of the People," starting the cycle of public persecution and abuse, often proceeding to interrogation, torture and deportation, if not death.

		Nadezhda Mandelstam salvaged many of Mandelstam's banned poems by either memorizing them or collecting them in manuscript form; she also chillingly and movingly documented her husband's death and times in her memoir, Hope Against Hope.
		Osip Mandelstam was brought up in St. Petersburg in a cultured, outward-looking way -- music, the classics, some time at the Sorbonne and the University of Heidelberg.
		His early poetry appeared in the progressive magazines; his description of "Acmeism," the school of poetry to which he belonged, was as a "yearning for world culture." He did not react well to Stalin's boot-kick politics.

		It was Mandelstam's misfortune to be a pure artist in a generation doomed to politics: "The wolfhound age springs at my shoulders/Though I'm no wolf by blood." He was born in 1891, to a Jewish family in Warsaw.
		Unlike the vast majority of Jews in the Russian Empire, the Mandelstams were able, thanks to business connections, to escape the Pale of Settlement, moving to St. Petersburg while their son was still very young.
		Mandelstam's anomalous position as a Jew in the Russian capital helped to fuel his intense need to claim and be claimed.
