About the book: year / Subtlety of thought, subtlety of feeling, subtle penetration into the world of the poetic word - this is the “handwriting” of the outstanding literary critic Vadim Kozhinov. From the very first chapters, one gets the feeling that the author himself lived among his heroes in the “golden” nineteenth century. But Vadim Kozhinov’s word can also be journalistically strong - in those episodes that relate to the most pressing political problems: the Crimean War, the confrontation between Russia and the West, historical “victories and troubles” of Russia. The narrative is structured in chronological logic. 12 chapters tell in detail about the personal, creative and civil biography of Fyodor Tyutchev. Moreover, the author emphasizes that he strives to create a double “portrait” of Tyutchev - as a brilliant lyricist and as an underrated diplomat, politician and public figure. The author himself thought of this work as the middle part of a kind of trilogy about Russian history and literature, which also includes the books “History Rus' and the Russian Word" and "Russia. Century XX". The publishing layout of the book is saved in PDF A4 format..
