Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:Olga Sedakova is one of contemporary Russia's foremost poetic voices and an eminent scholar in the fields of theology and European literature. She began her career in the cultural 'underground' of Moscow in the 1970s and has been concerned with the spiritual potential of poetry from the very beginning. Her work, inspired by Russian Modernism and the European poetic tradition, is a challenge to the postmodern age with its collages and soundbites. The present article explores the spirituality of poetic form on the example of the journey motif, understood by the poet as a pathway towards the silent centre.
