\n \n KLYUEV Nikolay Alexeevich (1884-1937), poet, prose writer. Studied in Vytegra Church School, then in the two-class Mining School. His works were published from 1904 onwards. The first verse collections, The Chime of Pine-Trees (1911), dedicated to A.A. Blok and numerous magazine publications gained Klyuev the fame as an original people's poet oriented to North Russian folklore. The stylistic talent of Klyuev became apparent in the collections Brothers' Songs (1912), True Stories of the Wood (1913), Worldly Thoughts (1916), Coppery Whale (1919), Lion's Bread (1922). He paid short visits to St. Petersburg, during one of them, in September of 1911, he had his first personal meeting with Blok (they had previously been in correspondence) and S.M. Gorodetsky; evidently, it was then he also me with N.S. Gumilev and A.A. Akhmatova and his interaction with the founders of the Guild of Poets started (until February 1913). His longest stay in Petrograd was from October 1915 to January 1916, and again until the summer of 1917 (intermittently). This was a period of close friendship with S.A. Esenin (participation in Krasa Literary and Art Association, then - Strada Association, public appearances, etc.) they are credited with the creation of new peasants' poetry. In 1915-18 lived at the flat of his sister K.A. Rasshcheperina (149 Fontanka River Embankment). The years of 1918-22 he spent in Vytegra. In 1923-32 again lived in Petrograd - Leningrad (45 Bolshaya Morskaya Street). Arrested in 1934 in Moscow, served his sentence in Tomsk. There he was again arrested in June 1937 and shortly afterwards executed by shooting.
