PUSHKIN’S MASTERY IN ROMANTICISM

Abstract

The article considers the innovation in the romanticism of Alexander Pushkin – the great national poet who enriched the Russian literary language, contributing to the establishment of realistic motives in it. The features of the romantic plot pass into Russian literature from European romanticism. A. S. Pushkin reflected the problems of real reality in his poetic search. The choice of the theme is of scientific interest, as it is explained by the relevance of the traditions of the famous poet, the founder of the new Russian literature, whose worldview corresponds to the progress of artistic thinking in the development of national poetry. The authors conclude that A.S. Pushkin’s romanticism was typical in the early period of creativity. Pushkin’s early work is illusory and optimistic. But, gradually, his work penetrated contradictions between romantic dreams and real reality. The main merit of A.S. Pushkin is that he was one of the first to realize the significant role of literature in the spiritual development of society.
