Wingless Desire in Modernist Russia: Envy and Authorship in the 1920s - Crosscurrents: Russia's Literature in Context
Yelena Zotova
Russia’s chief poet Alexander Pushkin defines envy as “wingless desire” in his short play “Mozart and Salieri” (1830). Wingless Desire in Modernist Russia examines how the Mozart and Salieri literary archetypes swap roles and how “envier” becomes “envied” in Russian Modernist prose during the New Economic Policy of 1921-1928.
