Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Winner of the 1987 Nobel Prize for Literature. Joseph Brodsky's second major collection contains poems from the years 1965 to 1978, translated from the Russian. Despite isolation from his native Russian culture and language since becoming an involuntary exile in 1972, Brodsky has inherited the tradition of Mandelstam, Akhmatova, and Pasternak. Restrained, sometimes humorous, sometimes brilliantly epigrammatic, his poems possess the serious, unfrivolous wit of his metaphysical forebears.

A Nobel Prize's first book --- First edition of the first book of "the most popular Russian poet of the second half of the 20th century" (Shubinskii, our translation here and elsewhere). A landmark edition that brought him fame in the West. Unable to publish almost any of his works in the USSR, Joseph Brodsky (1940-96) was well known in samizdat circles as one of the most prominent poets of the time; his works were collected and reproduced by admirers of his poetry since 1962. When his notorious trial for "social parasitism" began in February 1964, the compilation of his typewritten works was sent to Moscow to Aleksandr Ginzburg, the creator of the samizdat magazine Syntaksis, and then by Ginzburg abroad to reach Boris Filippov, the emigré writer and director of the Inter-Language Literary Associates publishing house, and Gleb Struve, professor of Russian literature at the University of California at Berkeley, who in 1963 first published Akhmatova's Requiem. In March 1964, Brodsky was sentenced to five years of hard labour. His trial gained international attention and members of both the Russian and international intelligentsia, including Anna Akhmatova and Jean-Paul Sartre, appealed for his liberation. He returned to his native Leningrad in September 1965 to discover that this first collection of his poetry had been published in the US about half a year earlier. Brodsky was disappointed with the collection because its editors included his "juvenilia" works and overlooked many mistakes. It was however "the first book that, as Akhmatova put it, "made" Brodsky's biography, causing the greatest resonance in the literary circles of the Russian emigration. The history of this book, published without the author's knowledge and consent, shows how the tamizdat industry [.] worked in the first half of the 1960s" (Klots). The collection's preface by Struve (under the pseudonym Georgii Stukov) opens with an excerpt from the trial, "the first human rights document of Samizdat, a model for subsequent documentary materials on political processes" (Zubarev), recorded by Frida Vigdorova. The edition unites five poems and sixty verses from 1957-62 (including the 22 early poems that Brodsky did not publish in his later collections) and from 1964, including some written between different hearings in the trial ("S grustiu i nezhnostiu") and two written already in exile ("Kolesnik umer", "Zagadka angelu"). In 1972, Brodsky was forced to leave Russia and moved to the US; in 1987, he received the Nobel Prize for Literature and is now considered the most important Russian poet of the second half of the 20th century.

Softcover. 0 (illustrator). First edition; 8 1/4 x 5 1/4; pp. [6], 5-114, [1]; beige wraps, printed and illustrated in black; a bit of age-toning to spine and margins of wraps; minor wear to corners and tips of spine; small rubbed spot to upper corner of ffep (removed bookshop label); small, closed puncture to lower margin of back wrap; very good or better condition.Brodskii began writing poetry in the 1950s and by 1960, after meeting and becoming close friends with several leading figures of the Russian literary scene, including Anna Akhmatova and Dmitrii Bonyshev. In 1963, his poetry was denounced for being anti-Soviet and pro-Jewish, he was accused of parasitism, arrested, and sentenced to hard labor. He would be eventually released and would emigrate, first to Vienna in 1972, and then permanently to Ann Arbor. He would go on to teach at the University of Michigan, Columbia, Queens College, Smith, and Cambridge, and would win the Nobel Prize in 1987. All of his life's work, but for 4 poems, would be published abroad. Arguably one of his most celebrated volumes of verse, "The End of a Wonderful Era" would solidify the widespread of Brodskii being the biggest living poet, writing in his native Russian. 2.

Nobel-Prize winning poetry pre- and post-emigration - "avec best pozhelaniiami" --- Two first editions, both volumes inscribed by the future Nobel Prize winner to a Russian woman of letters living in Los Angeles and New York, and an important figure of the Russian community in the USA. This is Brodsky's first collaboration with Ardis, "the most important and legendary foreign publisher of Russian literature, the pinnacle of the history of tamizdat" (Oborin, our translation here and elsewhere). By creating Ardis, the American Slavists Carl and Ellendea Proffer "completely changed the map of Russian literature" (Oborin): thanks to them, works that had no place in Soviet publishing houses became available to readers in the West and the USSR. During one of their trips to the Soviet Union in 1969, the Proffers met Nadezhda Mandelshtam who introduced them to Moscow literary circles and to Joseph Brodsky (1940-96), who was to become the major Russian poet of post-war 20th century and winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1987. These two contacts led the Proffers to the Soviet literary underground and enabled them to collect unpublished works by contemporary authors and rare editions of Russian literature from the early 20th century. Two years later, the couple founded a small publishing house, "Ardis", naming it after the estate from Vladimir Nabokov's novel Ada. The office of this private enterprise was located in the basement of the Proffers' house in Ann Arbor, Michigan. "In the best times it had three or four full-time employees, but often it would be the publishers Carl and Ellendea Proffer themselves who were typing, proof-reading (mostly at night), packing and mailing books. This publishing house acquired almost a mythical status as a refuge for uncensored literature among the Russian intelligentsia" (Lev Losev). Ardis published works and translations of the main Russian authors of the 20th century, including Osip Mandelshtam, Mikhail Bulgakov, Anna Akhmatova, Vladimir Nabokov, Velimir Khlebnikov, Andrei Platonov, Sasha Sokolov, Vasilii Aksenov, Sergei Dovlatov among many others. Brodsky became close friends with the Proffers and when he was forced to leave his homeland in 1972, they helped him emigrate to America and secured a place for him at the University of Michigan. Since 1977, the vast majority of Brodsky's Russian poetry had been published by Ardis. After Karl Proffer died of cancer in 1984, Brodsky stressed in his memorial: "What Proffer did for Russian literature is comparable to Gutenberg's invention, for he brought back the printing press. By publishing in Russian and English works that were not destined to appear in print, he saved many Russian writers and poets from oblivion, distortion, neurosis, and despair. Moreover, he has changed the very climate of our literature. Now the writer whose work is rejected or banned is personally freer, because he knows that he can, after all, send his work to Ardis." When preparing his first post-emigration collection of poetry in the US, Brodsky argued with Karl Proffer about the composition of the book: Brodsky wanted an edition of only new (post-1971) poems, while "Proffer did not want to leave out the other high quality poems that had been written since Brodsky's earlier collection A Stop in a Desert [Ostanovka v pustyne] (1970)". One of the editors of the present edition, Lev (Aleksei) Losev (1937-2009), also a Russian poet, literary critic, essayist and the author of one of the main biographies of Brodsky, remembers that as a result of this argument, Ardis decided to publish two collections of poetry simultaneously: in the first, The End of a Beautiful Era Brodsky's poems written before leaving Russia; in the second, Part of Speech [Chast rechi] poems written in the West. Another editor of both works was the writer Vladimir Maramzin (1934-2021). In 1974, he was arrested for compiling a typewritten collection of Brodsky's works in 5 volumes for samizdat; since 19.

8vo (148 x 198 mm), 1-62, 63a, 63-131 leaves; typescript text to rectos only, numbering and occasional Roman alphabet in manuscript; clean and crisp, a fine example, bound in green buckram.A rare samizdat of Joseph Brodsky's poems, prepared in typescript for clandestine circulation in the Soviet Union at a time when his works could not be published or circulated there. The typescript comprises two collections: New stanzas to Augusta, dedicated to Marina Basmanova, with whom Brodsky had a son, Andrei; and Twenty sonnets to Maria Stuart, written by Brodsky in 1974 and published by Ardis in Ann Arbor in 1977 within the collection Chast' rechi [A part of Speech]. The twenty sonnets were published again with New stanzas to Augusta in 1983, presumably the basis for the present samizdat. New stanzas to Augusta was first published in Russia by the Pushkinski Fond in St Petersburg in 2000.Brodsky's love poems to Marina Basmanova 'stand apart for their elliptical evocations of the entire cultural tradition of love poetry. Many of Brodsky's poems engage in philosophical speculation on the nature of human intimacy, and they indulge psychological theories about love's failures. Brodsky's cycle 'Twenty Sonnets to Maria Stuart' (1974) had perhaps the greatest resonance among later poets' (Dobrenko and Balina, The Cambridge Companion to Twentieth-Century Russian Literature, p. 125).Brodsky's name appeared in the preface to the KGB's list of those to be kept under intelligence by GlavLit. Due to the blanket ban on Brodsky's writing, which was being published abroad, his work was only available in samizdat; in a state where the printed text and its circulation were kept tightly regulated, and material printed without the censor's permission number was open to anti-Soviet interpretation, possessing samizdat could make one liable to prosecution under criminal law both for manufacture and distribution of anti-Soviet propaganda. The ban on Brodsky's writing was not lifted until 1988.All works - Blium 89. Language: Russian.
