COLLECTION OF POEMS IN LITERARY HERITAGE OF O.A. OKHAPKIN

Abstract

The work of the poet of “the bronze age” of Russian literature O.A. Okhapkin has been little studied by modern researchers. The article discusses the first two lifetime collections of poems composed by the poet himself. After many years, Okhapkin’s enforced silence was broken, and in 1990 the book “The Burning Bush” was published. In the same period of time, another collection of poems was published in Paris. The relationship between the two books can be traced due to the formation in the same time period and the attraction of Okhapkin’s artistic thinking to the creation of monumental contexts.
