METAPHORIC STEPS IN THE BOOK “POETS IN STAVROPOL ON THE VOLGA” BY S. KRASNOV
The article deals with the poetic metaphors “thunderstorm”, “blizzard”, as well as “key”, “stream”, “Volga”, passing through the texts of poets of the Volga region (G. Derzhavin, D. Sadovnikov, A. Tolstoy, V. Bagrov, N. Zhogolev, N. Busygina and others), as well as the poets of Stavropol on the Volga (A. Neverov, L. Zilov, A. Shiryaevets and others), and now Togliatti (S. Krasnov, T. Benkina, etc. ). Metaphors resonate with each other, poets talk with each other, starting from the original images and expanding their own in accordance with the literary trend or current (classicism, folklore, revolutionary poetry, industrial and landscape poetry of socialist realism, poetry of their native land), the program of which they follow. Based on the poetic texts from the book by Semyon Krasnov, the author of the article also draws on the texts of other Volga authors who widely use the mentioned metaphors. Thus, it was possible to build metaphorical chains uniting poets from the XVIII to the beginning of the XXI century.
