Makhachkala, May 15, 2014. In 2014, we are celebrating Daghestan poet Anvar Adzhiev’s 100th anniversary. Literary scholars point out the great literary and spiritual heritage the poet has left to the descendants. Speaking about the features of Adzhiev’s vision of nature in his poetry, the head of the Foreign Literature Department of Daghestan State University Kamil Hanmurzaev noted that Adzhiev was one of the poets who saw nature everywhere.

"Anyone turning the pages of Anvar Adzhiev’ poems immediately notices how much nature he is depicting, it is always out there, it is always hand-in-hand with the poet in his observations and meditations; it is a kind of reference point from everywhere. Reading his poems, you remember Goethe’s words about nature: "Everyone is a part of it, and it is everyone’s part... Those who don’t see it everywhere don’t see it at all." Anvar Adzhiev is one of the poets who sees nature everywhere."- Hanmurzaev said.

Whatever he wrote about, Anvar Adzhiev inevitably turned to nature, he always addressed it in his works. His entire poetic system, all his artistic means testify to it. At the same time, his scenery is nationally tinted, he sees nature as a man who is from his childhood familiar with the specifics of his people’s life, with characteristic objects of their everyday life. For him, nature is an inexhaustible source for poetry. Poetry is everywhere in it. Anvar Adzhiev believes that poetry is diffused in nature, diffused everywhere; you just have to feel it, live through it and recreate it.

"In Dagestan, some poets usually lyricize mountains, the others lyricize plains. But both are one-sided and they usually end up far from mountains and plains. But for Anvar Adzhiev, mountains and plains do not exist separately, they are perceived as a natural unity. The image of nature in Anvar Adzhiev’ poetry is merged with the image of homeland,"- Hanmurzaev noted.
