By the time the culture of the Silver Age was born, the country only had to survive Bloody Sunday and the horrors of the First World War. But the premonition of trouble is ripe. It was clear that the former life could not continue. And poetry, music, painting, like stretched strings, resonated with this trembling... The geographical framework of the Silver Age is narrow - mainly Moscow and St. Petersburg. Most poets and poetesses were familiar and eager to see each other. And, of course, they wrote poems to each other, and these poems best represent the era. Therefore, they turned out to be so important at a turning point in time. Prose outlines problems, poetry helps to survive them. Because only she can afford to turn to "naked" emotions. The previous era is the time of the "big" novels of Turgenev, Tolstoy. Now the novelists could no longer keep up with the time. The century needed an ambulance - poetry! Love and death are eternal themes for poetry. It is hard to write and read about death, but, not remembering this topic hanging over every house, we will not understand the exaltation of the people of the Silver Age and their desire for a different life, in the kingdom of ideas where people are not pursued by the temptations of the flesh. And we will not understand their repeated love for each other, for those close in spirit, for our neighbors - in the most literal and ordinary sense of the word. In myths, Muses not only inspire poets, they themselves sing hymns, glorifying heroes. In the Silver Age, muses are often creators themselves. Now the poet could receive from the lady of the heart not only a flower, but also a sonnet, and a negligent lover could be ridiculed and publicly printed with caustic iambic. And it made the love relationship really complicated and exciting.
