On the question of the Karlsbad text in Russian poetry.

Abstract

The article comprehends the authorship of an anonymous poem «The wild life do we lead in Karlsbad…», distributed in Russia in the lists in the middle of the XIX century. In the process of studying, we use socio-cultural, comparative-historical and historical-typological methods of research, as well as methods of comparative analysis. The authors put forward an idea that this playful work is written by P.A.Vyazemsky, which is confirmed by new archival data.
