Abstract

Focusing on the Paris Note group of Russian émigré poets that was formed in inter-war France, this chapter investigates the relationship between the younger émigré poets, who shared a distinctly transnational, hybrid and deracinated identity, and the Russian canon, master narrative, and poetic tradition, and considers how European and French poetic canons and cultural trends shaped the Paris Note poets’ aesthetic self-definition. It traces their revision of the classical Russian canon, as reflected in their meta-discourse and intertextual allusions in their verse, as well as the parameters of Paris Note poetic canon, as articulated by the mentor of the group, Georgii Adamovich, and as interpreted in the praxis of the younger émigré poets. The chapter will examine the place occupied by the Paris Note poets, for many years excluded from publication in Russia, in the revised twentieth-century poetry canon.
