Abstract
This article analyzes the expression of individual limitation in Nekrasov’s poetry as a model of democratic pathos which departs from the 1860s standard of self-sacrifi ce. Who Lives Well in Russia is treated as a culminating expression of Nekrasov’s unique combination of individual lyric voice and the shared affective experiences created by sound, which symbolizes a bid for agency among the intelligentsia and the narod alike and draws attention to linguistic form as a combined poetic and political act.
