FOLKLORE ORIGINS OF GENRE POETRY OF THE HERO OF THE CIVIL WAR K. ROSLY

Abstract

The article continues the topic devoted to folklore origins in the poetry of the hero of the Civil War in the Far East, the commander of the partisan detachment K.L. Rosly (1897 or 1898, the village of Peretino, Suchansky volost of the South Ussuri district of the Primorsky region of the Russian Empire (nowadays Partizansky district of Primorsky Krai) – 1926, Bering Sea, Karaginsky district of the Kamchatka district of the Far Eastern Territory, RSFSR). Oral folk art and folk poetry among the poet and writer, in our opinion, became fundamental in the search and implementation of various genre-stylistic forms. The work made an appeal to such genres in the work of the Far Eastern author as a ditty, an appeal, as well as poems created in epic style. It is concluded that the works having such an embodiment are original, such a feature as genre syncretism is noted. Like previous articles revealing facts about an active participant in the Civil War in Primorye, a “singer” and a “nugget of the Suchan Valley”, the work is based on documents that date back to the beginning and middle of the 20th century. When writing, archival and little-known sources were used: literary and journalistic materials from newspapers and magazines, including regional ones, memoirs of old-timers, as well as associates of K. Rosly, participants and eyewitnesses of the Civil War in the Russian Far East.
