Nekrasov (1821-1878), one of the greatest Russian poets of the 19th century, critic and publisher, whose deeply compassionate poems about peasant Russia made him the hero of liberal and radical circles of Russian intelligentsia. As the editor of several literary journals, notably Sovremennik, Nekrasov was also singularly successful and influential. - "The Poems" by Nekrasov, first published in October 1856, made their author famous. Divided into four parts and opening with the manifest-like "The Poet and the Citizen", it was organized into an elaborate tapestry, parts of it interweaved to form vast poetic narratives (like "On the Street" cycle). Part one was dealing with the real people's life, part two satirised 'the enemies of the people', part three ("Sasha") revealed the 'friends of the people, real and false', and part four was a collection of lyric verses on love and friendship. In 1861 the second edition of The Poems came out (now in 2 volumes), in Nekrasov's lifetime this ever-growing collection has been re-issued several times. N° de ref. del artículo ID 78
