Abstract

The goal of the article is to revise the engendered notions of the Soviet textual criticism concerning the impact of censorship on Nekrasov’s works as exclusively repressive and leading to the distortion of the text. A number of texts («The Unfortunate», «The Railroad») show that the censor’s input encouraged the poet to further improve the text. The presence of arguments in favor of censorship interference should not, however, lead to deviations from the principle of the last lifetime edition and to the «reconstruction» of the text from other sources.

Keywords

N. A. Nekrasov, textual criticism, censorship, the poem «The Railroad», Russian poetry of the second half of the 19th century.
