Hinduism motives in the "Malabar poem" by V. Rabinovich

The article analyzes the semantic and stylistic features of V. Rabinovich's "Malabar Poem", first published in the book of poems "In every Tree there is a violin" (1978), taking into account critical reviews. Russian Russian writers' interest in India, which dates back to medieval literature and has been preserved to this day, and the overlap of Russian folklore with the motifs of ancient Indian culture, are noted. The connection of Rabinovich's poetics with the traditions of Soviet poetry, the work of the Oberiutes and poets of the Silver Age, and the history of world culture is indicated. The techniques of language play and the subtext reflection of the atmosphere of the 70s of the XX century in Russia were revealed, when anti-war rhetoric intensified in the conditions of the next round of the cold War, and the so-called stagnation prevailed in domestic politics, and the Soviet intelligentsia resisted the dominance of officialdom and standard in journalism and literature. The relevance of the poem itself and its research is emphasized, due to immersion in the unique author's method of the poet, combining science and lyrics. Formulate the author's super task is formulated - an attempt to emphasize the common features of Hinduism and Christianity with the help of a stylistic experiment, as well as to create a utopian picture of universal peace and harmony.
