metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: The article deals with youth lyrics of Edith Södergran — a prominent poet-modernist
  of Swedish descent who was born and went to school in St. Petersburg. Edith
  Södergrans’ professional oeuvres were written in the Swedish language and published
  in Finland, her earliest poems being composed in several languages: German, French,
  Swedish and Russian yet never published in her lifetime. It was at St Peter’s School —
  Sankt-Petri-Schule that Edith Södergran commenced poetic exercises. Waxcloth Notebook
  from 1907–1909 — Vaxvukshäftet — where she recorded her first uneven, and
  heterogeneous in form and metrics, verses is decisive in comprehending her mature
  modernist lyrics of world value. The article suggests that some of the poems have a
  character of exercises associated with the curriculum in versification. Poetry chosen
  is composed in various versification systems. Analysis of seven poems from Waxcloth
  Notebook demonstrates Södergran’s natural ease for drawing emphatical images and for
  discovering inner feelings at the same time. Her quick eye and rooted insight combined
  with native ability and cleverness to render colors and to bring dynamic movement
  or slow it down is highly convincing in verses dedicated to her native St. Petersburg
  in German and in her first poems in Swedish. Her unschooled talent evolved by early
  poetic experiments and aesthetic sense advanced by St. Petersburg prepared further
  transformation of Södergran as self-sustained word painter and reformer of versification
  in the Swedish language.
