On What Did Joseph Brodsky Close His Eyestranslated

September 21, 2026 · 1 min read

In his Nobel lecture, Joseph Aleksandrovich left us with loud and inspiring thoughts that form the basis of his complex poetry.

In an episode of "PRO CHTO," they read Brodsky's Nobel lecture and discussed its aftermath — ethics, aesthetics, man, system, the usefulness/harmfulness of reading, and true intellectualism:

Peter Pashkov — candidate in theology, associate professor at PSTGU;

Olga Zaytseva — philologist, head of the Academy of Thomas project.

The project is realized with the support of the Presidential Fund for Cultural Initiatives.

Nu știu dacă aș citi tot B Brodsky, dar ideea din discursul Nobel despre etică și estetică mi s-a părut clară. Mă întreb ce ar zice Părintele Petru Pashkov despre cum se leagă asta de ce citim noi în familie seara, nu doar pentru cultură. Mulțumesc pentru recomandare.
