Works
One of Arelsky's earliest works was the book of verse released in 1911. It is entitled the Blue Ajoure (Goluboi azhur) and was noted for its imitations of Konstantin Balmont and Vasily Bryusov's poetry.[1] This text was, however, praised by Alexander Blok for its portrayal of the stars.[1] A year later, he published the article, Egopoetry in Poetry (Egopoezii v poezii) in which he argued that Ego-poetry aims to glorify egoism as the only true and vital intuition.[2] He also maintained that man is a creation of nature so that she rules his actions and egoism, which she placed inside of man and should be developed, is what unites all humanity.[3]
Arelsky was also one of the authors of Prolog Ego-Futurizm, a brochure on Ego-Futurism published in October 1915, along with Igor Severyanin, Olimpov, and George Ivanov.[4] A manifesto was also released the following month.
Several notable literary works were published after he left Ego-Futurism and joined the Acmeist Guild of Poets.[1] These include the Tales from Mars (Povesti o Marse), a compilation of three interconnected fictional stories about a Martian workingman revolution against their capitalist oppressors.[1]
Quote: God is eternity. Man in being born is separated from it.
