Abstract:
The Italian archive of Vyacheslav Ivanov contains handwritten poetic fragments and letters of the French poet, critic and translator Jean Chuzeville. The poetic fragments suggest the circumstances in which Vyacheslav Ivanov and Chuzeville met in person in Rome. The letters dated July 1951, February and December 1954 and October 1956, are addressed to Dimitry Ivanov. Some reconstructed biographical elements precede this first publication of four letters translated here from French into Russian. The appendix to the article also contains a translation of the critical note that precedes Ivanov’s verses in the anthology that Chuzeville published in 1914.
