Since the very beginning Chukovsky’s children poetry has been characterized by an incredible formal originality, which makes it a well balanced mix of tradition and innovation. The article investigates the main characteristics of the children’s texts written between 1917 and 1932 in terms of metrics, rhymes and syntax. Tracing back to the sources of folklore and poetic tradition – both contemporary and ancient, Russian and international – the analysis sheds a light on the revolutionary contribution of Chukovsky’s children’s art, on the background of the epical turn marked by the October Revolution.

Abstract
Since the very beginning Chukovsky’s children poetry has been characterized by an incredible formal originality, which makes it a well balanced mix of tradition and innovation. The article investigates the main characteristics of the children’s texts written between 1917 and 1932 in terms of metrics, rhymes and syntax. Tracing back to the sources of folklore and poetic tradition – both contemporary and ancient, Russian and international – the analysis sheds a light on the revolutionary contribution of Chukovsky’s children’s art, on the background of the epical turn marked by the October Revolution.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
