Nikolai Mikhailovich Yazykov. Do you know this author? Unfortunately, a small number of even avid readers can boast that they are familiar with the work of this poet, nevertheless, his fame is not at all directly proportional to the strength of his work.
Russian "unknown" poet
Nikolai Yazykov - Russian poet of the 19th century, a contemporary of the "sun" of Russian poetry A. S. Pushkin. Despite the fact that today few people know Yazykov's poems, at one time they were read to them and put him on a par with Pushkin. His most famous poem, relevant at all times, Yazykov called "The Swimmer". The poem is lively, saturated with bright colors. "Swimmer" Yazykov, like a sailboat, rushes through time and does not lose its significance today.
The Sea of Life
"Our sea is unsociable, it makes noise day and night…" This is how the poem begins"Swimmer" Nikolai Yazykov. Further, it is said that in the expanse of this sea many troubles were buried. So what is this sea? Reading a poem, you understand that this is our life. Every day she makes noise, rages. And in this bustle, we do not notice how much grief surrounds us, and this grief does not bypass us. The poem describes the life of a sail that passes through the waves, through the shaft, through the storm. He swims swiftly, because somewhere out there his "blissful country" is waiting for him, and only a strong sail can get there. In this poem, Sail is, of course, a person. As a swimmer Yazykov, so every person runs, fights, does something, strives for something better all his life. He is waiting for that very blissful time when he can calm down.
Languages in "Swimmer" sums up that not everyone can get into this very "blissful country". Only the strong and patient will get there, who adequately overcomes all difficulties. Yazykov's "Swimmer" is relevant not only for the 19th century, it shows that time passes, but nothing changes: a person still clutches at every straw in the sea of life day after day to wait for a blissful time.
