(339 words) Sergey Yesenin, by nature, was a romantic and amorous man, as his biography says. Not only he loved, but he was loved. Each of his poems, dedicated to the lady of the heart, is like a brainchild in which he strove to throw out everything that overwhelms him, his feelings and emotions, as far as the poet knew how. His verses reflect the whole bitter experience of the relationship between a man and a woman. There are warm, bright moments that remain a pleasant memory for years. Here is the whole bitterness of quarrels, interwoven with the life-giving passion that lived in Yesenin.
The author often wrote that he was ready to give up everything in order to be with one beloved woman all his life. For example, in the famous poem “A Blue Fire Has Noticed,” he mentions that he can even recant poems. The one who will be able to tame him and find out all the power of love of a creative person, he will devote himself wholeheartedly. So in his lyrics reflected the first time of love.
But then time passes, and the lyrical hero begins to fear and doubt his beloved. He knows how they can lure with their beauty, how insidious these creatures are, but he again falls into this trap. The love of a woman, in the theory of Sergei Yesenin, is a stupefying force that attracts a person with his desire, gradually capturing it like an illness, leaving it to suffer, sucking everything up without a trace. For example, the poem “Sing, sing. On the damned guitar ”tells that the feeling of attraction between a woman and a man is a“ plague ”and a“ plague ”that drives one crazy. The image of a lady inspires fear: in this "young and beautiful rubbish" he found death.
But there is another facet of his work - separation. Although the poet was famous for his mistreatment of ladies, in the lyrics he often portrayed himself as a victim of their cunning or indifference. “Letter to the woman” - a message to Zinaida Reich, who, tired of the beatings and jealousy scenes, left Yesenin. But in the poem, she looks like an indifferent and unjust lady who does not need a passionate poet, because she, according to him, did not understand and did not love him.
Yesenin’s attitude to a woman is a complete contradiction in which he argues with himself, succumbing to temptation every time, and repenting again and again. He loved passionately and passionately, experienced separation acutely and painfully, and each emotion was reflected in his lyrics.
