Slavcho Krasinski

Summary/Abstract: Slavcho Krasinski is one of the gifted Bulgarian lyrical poets between the two world wars. When he was 21 (1929) he published his first book of poetry entitled Gunshot and attracted the critics’ attention. The poet’s real character is revealed by his two subsequent books – Spring Guest (1932) and Green Clouds (1938). From 1930 he actively contributed verses to the renowned Zlatorog magazine (edited by Vladimir Vasilev). His work paradoxically combines the characteristics of symbolism (the critics see N. Liliev’s influence here) and imaginism, which penetrated into in Bulgaria under the influence of the Russian poet Sergey Esenin. These are the two poetics which create an intertextual web of links for Slavcho Krasinski’s lyrical poetry.
