For many nineteenth-century Russians, poetry was woven into
everyday life-in conversation and correspondence, scrapbook albums,
and parlor entertainments. Blending close literary analysis with
social and cultural history, Daria Khitrova shows how poetry lovers
of the period all became nodes in a vast network of literary
appreciation and constructed meaning. Poetry during the Golden Age
was not a one-way avenue from author to reader. Rather, it was
participatory, interactive, and performative. Lyric Complicity
helps modern readers recover Russian poetry's former uses and
functions-life situations that moved people to quote or perform a
specific passage from a poem or a forgotten occasion that created
unforgettable verse.
