"February" is one of the first known poems of the famous poet. Extraordinarily short, laconic, capacious, as if chased, it simultaneously amazes with its versatility and beauty.
An analysis of Pasternak's poem is difficultbecause of this multiplicity of work, deliberate simplicity and inner harmony and complexity. It was written back in 1912 and very soon, the following year it was published in a poetic collection entitled "Lyrics", which became the first printed speech of the poet. Already in the forties he wrote a new version of this work, but then returns yet to the original.
No matter how simply Pasternak himself wrote, the analysispoems are given to descendants with difficulty. His theme seems to be understandable. But then everything gets confused. It seems to be February, then what kind of shower is it? The point is that all these are expressions that are characteristic of symbolism. As the poet's friend and literary historian Konstantin Locks wrote, Pasternak's work is a new reality, another dimension, in which the perception and spirit of the mental world merges with the real world around the person. And then everything falls into place.
Producing an analysis of Pasternak's poem"February", with this approach it is necessary to act: through the conditioned reality of the soul and its perception, the poet himself is already going to images, each of which more resembles a capacious and colorful symbol. All of Pasternak's early poems are, first of all, a picture of the soul, its torments, feelings and aspirations. Sadness, separation, sadness ... All this is not a phenomenon of nature, but a throwing of the soul. The very first word in the poem, before the point, is a kind of theme of the whole work. February. A simple, short word, like a heartbeat, a weak push that will move the whole avalanche off the mountain.
Producing an analysis of Pasternak's poem,the reader gradually begins to understand that it is not moving in space, but rather in time. After all, it's about February. Then why the "black spring" and downpour? It's more like March, if not April. And even later, understanding of the author's conception looms. The beginning of the poem is a kind of wandering, a journey from winter to the coming spring. Then the pace accelerates, an entire network of events flies by, until the last quatrain, monotonous and uniform, comes smoothly returning the reader to the very beginning.
Анализ стихотворения Пастернака выявляет и Features of the rhythmic construction of the poem, which is more like the sound of a bell. He then buzzes measuredly and low, then flutters quickly and gently. In the figurative series of the poem, the sound plays a very important role. It is he, and not the visual images, that dominates the poem. Slush rumbling, noisy, deafening cacophony cause a vague alarm, a sense of confusion, and are combined with the poet's soulful throwings.
Spring mood, awakening, desire to write,to create is what more clearly reveals an analysis of Pasternak's poem. And even though the birth of new poems is painfully, intensely, the poet seeks to overcome all obstacles and in the poem purposely accelerates time, striving for the final. From here and click of wheels, falls of a shower, noisy flocks of rooks. All this roar seems to fall on the poet, trying to crush, to quench the fire in his soul.
