- Abstract:
- Japanese forms of verse are beginning to occupy an important place in the Udmurt poetry of recent times. In the 1990s, the dialogue of cultures was directed mainly to the West. In the new millennium, the internal mechanisms of culture begin to actualize the classical East. There comes a time of worldview and understanding of what is happening, haiku is becoming one of the popular genres. The purpose of the study is to identify national features of the haiku genre in the Udmurt lyrics. The object of analysis is the poems of A. Leontiev, S. Matveev and Alexei Arzamazov, written in the form of a Japanese three-line poem. The method of analysis is comparative studies. The results of the study are as follows. Udmurt poets, writing in the form of haiku, strive to see the big world in a small detail, to show the eternal in a moment. The autumn landscape becomes attractive in that it conveys “light sadness” (sabi). Thus, the poets do not copy the Japanese canons, but bring a national flavor. The unexpectedness of the finale (koan) in Udmurt haiku is usually achieved by the fact that the poet passes from one spatial dimension to another.
