  • Descrição: In August 1923, Tsvetaeva wrote two poems that address her exilic condition through the lens of space and time, lamenting her status as both destierro (one deprived of his land) and destiempo (one deprived of his time), to use the terms of Jozef Wittlin. In these poems, Tsvetaeva grieves the manner in which human perception divides and measures space and time, destroying their larger, eternal essence. In this sense, the poems are metaphysical elegies to transcendent space and time, which constitute the native land of poetry, from which the poet feels displaced. By positioning herself as the poet bereaved from these ideals, Tsvetaeva expresses her earthly bereavement from her homeland as well, articulating her exilic anxiety. Tsvetaeva does, in fact, utilize traditional elegiac devices in these poems, and reading the poems with the elegiac mode in mind enhances our understanding of them. Despite their elegiac elements, the work of mourning is not fully achieved in these poems, and they take on an anti-elegiac stance typical of the modern elegy, where the consolatory effect of the poems and of language itself is cast into doubt. In the end, however, Tsvetaeva manages to place herself metaphorically outside the brunt of her exilic anxiety, positioning herself between the worlds of eternity and mortality.
