Windy age. About poetry and poets

“We have found a windy age, Lyra!” - Marina Tsvetaeva exclaims in one of her poems. What yardstick should be used to measure art in cruel times of revolutions, wars, and collapse of ideals?

The collection contains theoretical and polemical articles by Tsvetaeva, in which she talks about important contemporary poets for her - Maximilian Voloshin and Valery Bryusov, Boris Pasternak and Vladimir Mayakovsky, Andrei Bely and Mikhail Kuzmin.
