Poems from Blok and Akhmatova
All three poems reproduced here are from Blok's third book. Their widely differing character together with the fact that they were all written within the space of eight months-says much for Blok's versatility. For the Dostoevskian nature of To The Muse, which significantly introduces the third book, cf. V. Zhirmunsky: Poeziya Aleksandra Bloka, 1922, Ch. II, pp. 26 ff. Ever nearer the call... The scene is almost certainly Shakhmatovo, Blok's much …
