First edition, 8vo (20 x 14.5 cm); original printed wrappers designed by Oleksander Lozovsky, some restoration to corners and spine, a very good copy. First edition of one of Tychyna's most famous and important works. His first collection of poetry Clarinets of the Sun (1918) brought him instant recognition as the major Ukrainian poet of his time. His second collection The Plow confirmed Tychyna's position in Ukrainian culture. The wrappers were designed by Oleksander (Les) Lozovsky, a student of Narbut and Mykhailo Boichuk. Pavlo Tychyna is a complex figure who played along with changing Party dictates after enjoying a period of creative independence and has a problematic reputation for his later work. Tychyna's work from 1917 through 1932 is acknowledged to be his most important and he is accepted as Ukraine's premier poet of the beginning of the twentieth century. He was nominated for a Nobel Prize in 1967 but forced to reject the nomination despite conforming to Socialist Realism decades earlier. 'What Tychyna has given our literature indeed constitutes a great treasure. It so happened that this young dreamer, with a look directed deep inside him, in his very first book appears so profoundly original and mature and at the same time so tied to the best traditions of our literature that there could be no doubt that a new, fresh, and captivating page has been written in it. Tychyna took from the old soil a humane treatment of themes, a deep national colouring, and the most beautiful language, [forming] a laconic style that in its simplicity, lyricism, and compactness reminds us of the manner of our great prose writer, Vasyl' Stefanyk. Possibly of world stature, Tychyna through his form is a deeply national poet because he has used what was best in earlier generations. He drank in, as it were, all the beauty of the popular language and has used it with great taste and mastery in a most sophisticated manner. He has added to this his dreaminess and depth, brilliant form, and a flexible sonorous verse technique, usually scorned by our writers with the exception of two or three mannerist poets' (Yefremov).…

Buch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Pavlo Tychyna is arguably the greatest Ukrainian poet of the twentieth century and has been described as a 'tillerman's Orpheus' by Ukrainian poet and literary critic Vasyl Barka. With his innovative poetics, deep spirituality and creative word play, Tychyna deserves a place among the pantheon of his European contemporaries such as T.S. Eliot, Ezra Pound, Rainer Maria Rilke, Federico Garcia Lorca, and Osip Mandelstam. His early collections Clarinets of the Sun (1918), The Plow (1920), Instead of Sonnets and Octaves (1920), The Wind from Ukraine (1924), and his poetic cycle In the Orchestra of the Cosmos (1921) mark the pinnacle of his creativity and poetically document the emotional and spiritual toll of the Revolution of 1917 as well as the Civil War and its aftermath in Ukraine. Tychyna coined the term 'Clarinetism' to describe his earliest works, which intrinsically exhibit the clarity and the haunting sound of a clarinet. He harkens back to ancient Greek literature to form what has been called the 'tragic lyric' in his short collection Instead of Sonnets and Octaves, which gives a personal, humanistic understanding to the tragic events of the Revolution. John Fizer has noted Tychyna's close affinity with Walt Whitman's cosmism, particularly in his cycle In the Orchestra of the Cosmos. While Tychyna in may ways displays the moral conscience of his times in his early works, later in his life he acquiesced to Soviet authorities in order to survive the horrors of Stalin's regime. He was forced by authorities to refuse a nomination for the Nobel Prize, the only reason for which would have been his Ukrainian ethnicity. This edition of Tychyna's complete early works includes translations of all his major early collections as well as his poetic masterpieces 'Mother was Pealing Potatoes,' 'Funeral of My Friend,' and his highly patriotic 'In Memory of the Thirty.' The volume includes a guest introduction by eminent Ukrainian poet Viktor Neborak. 210 pp. Englisch. …
