Le Regard Libre N° 77 - Eugène Praz
Dossier «The arts in the face of Russian power»
On June 28, we met Professor Georges Nivat, an eminent French Slavic scholar, at his home in Haute-Savoie. His hospitality is Russian, and the view splendid. He welcomes us to his garden, which he likes to take care of for an hour every morning before plunging into his work. Among other activities, Georges Nivat is currently translating the Ukrainian poet Vasyl Stus into French. The next day, he has a Zoom appointment with Kiev, an opportunity to exchange nuances of Ukrainian with the man who helped him acquire the language. The Russian world is his home; we hope to discover a few versts of it under his guidance.
