Взгляд на модернизацию литовской поэзии в рецензиях журнала «Нямунас» (1973–1990 г.)

Abstract

The article presents the importance of the magazine «Nemunas», which is considered to be one of the most westernized cultural publications in Lithuania during the Soviet period, and discusses the attitudes towards gradually modernized poetry, as evident in the reviews that were publisher during the time from the starting of publishing reviews column (1973 y.) until the re-establishment of Lithuanian independence (1990 y.). While analysing the reviews one encounters the problems which the young poets generations faced with in the 7th and 8th decades, particularly the relationship between the old and the new in contemporary poetry and the questions associated with the readers.
