Sergej Esenin,only child of paesants parents,is the main exponent of the so called "paesant poets".In his lyrics we find the rural world of the beginning century Russia,with the beauty of countryside and his love for animal world,at the same time his ill-famed life in brothels and taverns as alcoholic. The meeting with the famous dancer Isadora Duncan will be very important for his poetical inspirations and also for his lifestyle .It is a very suffering and hard relationship they were both able of clamorous extravagances like that time in a hotel in Paris where they were ejected out because she was dancing nude while he was playng lyrics.He was,as branduardi use to say,half wolf and half lamb,violent and aggressive but sensitive and sweet at the same time. He died suicide. Before to die he was in his room of the hotel Angleterre there was not ink,so to write his last poem: CONGEDO* he used his blood ,after he hanged himself. His most famous works was the poems collection: RADUNICA(1916), GOLUBEN' and PREOBRAZENIE(1918)TRERJADNICA(1920)and ,finally,in the same year he composed CONFESSIONI DI UN TEPPISTA* , wonderful autobiographical lyrics.
