Abstract

The article looks upon characteristic properties of poetic style of one of the brightest examples of the “Paris note” movement - of baron Anatolii Sergeevich Shteiger (1907-1944). It finds etymological roots of his ascetic lexicon and imagery that determine the immanent characteristics of one of Georgy Adamovich’s most fascinating poetic followers. It outlines a methodological analysis of structural features that reflect the poet’s tendency for architectonic and lexical minimalism. The article justifies the necessity to systematically study Anatolii Shteiger’s legacy as part of Russian Émigré Literature.
