Eyes in the poetical imagination of Marina Cvetaeva

• Languages of publication: PL

Abstracts

For Cvetaeva the eyes were always the expression of a man’s soul. It was through the eyes that she would first estimate the personality of people that she met in the course of her life. In her opinion, the eyes reflected the most important features of an individual. That is why wanting to fully express an opinion about someone, including protagonists of her works, she would use a metaphor in describing their look. The eyes were the driving force for Cvetaeva and dark eyes, especially hazel, stimulated her artistic imagination. Having hazelnut eyes equalled for her belonging to a spiritually rich and intelligent nation. The article contains an interpretation of works in which the description of eyes plays a significant role.
