Title: DU FU POETRY AND ITS INTERPRETATION IN THE GENRE DIVERSITY OF THE FIRST NOTEBOOK OF "SICHUAN ELEGIES" BY N. SIDELNIKOV
Abstract: The article briefly describes the work of Du Fu, one of the classics of Tang Chinese poetry. The poet chronicled the history of the Tang state from its heyday to its decline, allowing his compatriots to call him "shi sheng", which means "holy piit". Social issues were among Du Fu's central themes, but in his later years his poetry was characterized by a more attentive attitude to the human being and an awareness of the greatness of the human spirit. The composer N. Sidelnikov, who showed a special interest in the culture of different peoples, put Du Fu's poetry on a par with the works of Michelangelo and Shakespeare. The composer took his poems as the basis for the diptych "Sichuan Elegies". The genre of elegy indicated in the title of the work, exactly corresponds to the mood of Du Fu's poems, composed in the late period of the poet's work. However, the content of the poems includes the prerequisites for the genre diversity of the cycle. In this paper, the first of the two notebooks of "Sichuan Elegies" is analyzed in terms of genre solution.
