Possibly of world stature, Tychyna through his form is a deeply national poet because he has used what was best in earlier generations. He drank in, as it were, all the beauty of the popular language and has used it with great taste and mastery in a most sophisticated manner. He has added to this his dreaminess and depth, brilliant form, and a flexible sonorous verse technique, usually scorned by our writers with the exception of two or three mannerist poets' (Yefremov).…
