A. S. Pushkin and the Сrisis of Сulture: on the Question of Goethe’s Reception in Pushkin’s Work

Abstract

The article examines the reception of Goethe in Pushkin's works of the period of the first Boldin autumn. The novelty of the article lies in the fact that in the context of Pushkin's intellectual dialogue with Goethe, it was the year 1830 that remained unexplored. In this regard, the author sets a goal to record the transformation of goethean plots in the first Boldin autumn. The article is relevant because the main theme that brought the creativity of the German and Russian classics closer together is the crisis of European culture as such, the consequences of which we are still facing today. It was on the problem of culture, as seen by two geniuses, that the author focused his attention.
