Anos Achmatovos kūrybos recepcija Lietuvių egzodo literatūroje (Henrikas Radauskas, Alfonsas Nyka-Niliūnas, Tomas Venclova)
The Reception of Anna Akhmatova’s Creativity in the Literature of the Lithuanian Exodus (Henrikas Radauskas, Alfonsas Nyka-Niliūnas, Tomas Venclova)

Summary/Abstract: This article discusses the memoirs, diaries, translations, dedications, poetry and critical works of three Lithuanian exodus poets: Henrikas Radauskas, Alfonsas Nyka-Niliūnas and Tomas Venclova. These Lithuanian poets of the exodus are hardly possible to associate with any kinds of literature movements. Therefore, the reception of Akhmatova’s creative work will be reviewed separately in the context of the creative heritage of the selected authors. Under the new concept of reception, the perception process is not a constant fact – it is a changing, dynamic phenomenon. The theory of reception considers the most important aspect – the accepting side – therefore, it is important to analyze the horizons of the expectations of these Lithuanian poets, their aesthetic perception of art and the way they evaluate poetry. This article takes into account the “horizon of expectation” of the Lithuanian poets, their aesthetic attitudes, perception of art in general and poetry in particular, as well as some features of their poetic creativity.
