1 | Russia: Online Poetry's Vehement, Apolitical Politics | Rosia: Poezia Antserasera Mirehidrehitra, Politikan'ny Tsy Fanaovana Politika |
2 | Russians proverbially have a soft spot for poetry. | Mora renoka eo anatrehan'ny tononkalo ny Rosiana raha eo amin'ny fomba fitenenana no lazaina. |
3 | After reports appeared that Vladimir Putin planned to lead a flock of endangered Siberian Cranes on an annual migration, while hang-gliding and dressed as a bird, many bloggers responded [ru] with [ru] classic poems about cranes, along with photoshopped images (see below). It's no surprise that a result of Russians' widespread interest in poetry is that there are plenty of online communities dedicated to its production and consumption. | Taorian'ny tatitra milaza fa nikasa hitarika ireo andiam-borona manana anarana midika hoe ‘karandoha siberiana' tahaka ny vano (fotsy fa manana elatra mainty) antsoina amin'ny teny siantifika hoe Grus leucogeranus ahiana ho lany taranaka amin'ny fotoam-pifindra-moniny i Vladimir Putin, amin'ny fitondrana voromby maivana atao maka endrika vorona, dia namaly izany tamin'ny [ru] alalan'ny tononkalo klasika, miaraka amin'ny sary namboarina (jereo eo ambany) momba ireo karazam-borona ireo ny bilaogera maromaro,. |
4 | Stihi.ru [ru] (‘stihi' translates as ‘poems'), with a user base of almost half a million people, is the largest by far. | Tsy mahagaga ny vokatry ny fitiavan'ny Rosiana ny tononkalo satria maro ny fikambanana antserasera natokana amin'ny famokarana sy ny fandefasana izany. |
5 | In fact, this space, dedicated to writing, publishing, and sharing poems, is one of Russia's largest online communities. | Stihi.ru [ru] (‘stihi' midika hoe “tononkalo”), ahitana mpikambana eo amin'ny atsasa-tapitrisa eo, izay midadasika indrindra. Sehatra natokana hanoratana, handefasana sy hizarana tononkalo, iray amin'ireo fikambanana antserasera lehibe indrindra ny Stihi.ru. |
6 | Its founder, Dmitri Kravchuk, estimates [ru] that 1% of all users of the RuNet write poetry, and many of them use his website. | Nambaran'ilay [ru] mpamorona azy, Dmitri Kravchuk, fa manoratra tononkalo avokoa ny 1% n'ny mpikambana ao amin'ny RuNet, ary maro amin'izy ireo no mampiasa ny tranokalany. |
7 | One example of RuNet photoshopping addressing Putin's latest act. (An anonymous image widely circulated online.) | Ohatra iray tamin'ny sary namboarina (photoshop) tao amin'ny RuNet milaza ny zavatra nataon'i Putin farany teo. |
8 | More than a decade old, Stihi.ru grew out of a small LGBT forum, but quickly became the hangout spot for thousands of aspiring poets. | (Sary tsy fantatra navoaka eraky ny aterineto.) Folo taona mahery izay, teraka tamin'ny alalan'ny alalan'ny sehatra LGBT madinika ny Stihi.ru, ary nalaky lasa toeram-pihaonan'ireo mpankafy tononkalo an'arivony. |
9 | The sense of community and a well developed system of reviewing and critiquing differentiates publishing there from simply using blogging platforms like LiveJournal. | Ny fiaraha-mientana, sy rafitra tsara petraka momba ny fanaraha-maso sy ny tsikera amin'ireo karazana tononkalo alefa ao amin'ny alalan'ny fampiasana tsotra ny sehatra bilaogy toy ny LiveJournal. |
10 | (Though many have found success through LiveJournal, such as young poet Vera Polozkova [ru], who started with posting on her LJ blog and now publishes books commercially.) | (Maro aza ireo nahita fahombiazana amin'ny fampiasana ny LiveJournal, tahaka ilay tanora poety Vera Polozkova [ru], izay nanomboka tamin'ny famoahany ny bilaoginy LJ ary ankehitriny , efa mamoaka boky amidy izy.) |
11 | Even with its review system, Stihi.ru is designed to be egalitarian and isn't curated. | Na dia eo aza izany fiovan-drafitra izany, natao hampimira lenta ny Stihi.ru ary tsy misy mpanaisotra votoaty ny tranonkala. |
12 | The consequence is that it can be hard to sort out the good from the bad. | Ny voka-dratsiny fotsiny dia mety ho sarotra ny hanavaka ny tsara sy ny ratsy. |
13 | Accusations of graphomania run rampant, especially from the more elite literary circles. | Mandady ny fifampiangana graphomania [fahadalàna manoratra] , indrindra eo amin'ny tontolon'ny literatiora sy ny vato nasondrotry ny tany mahay izany. |
14 | The service also attracts criticism for fostering a space that is so safe, that it doesn't promote artistic progress. | Iharan'ny tsikera ihany koa ny tolotra (servisy) fa tsara aro loatra ny sehatra, saingy tsy mampandroso ny hai-javakanto kosa izany. |
15 | Sometimes this criticism migrates from the online world to real life. | Matetika tonga eny amin'ny fiainam-bahoaka ny tsikera amin'ny aterineto. |
16 | Recently, for instance, three poets blogged about attending the filming of a poetry-themed talk show. | Vao haingana ohatra, mpanao tononkalo telo nibilaogy momba ny fanatrehana ny tafatafa tamin'ny fahitalavitra miompana amin'ny tononkalo. |
17 | One of the two young women reading their poems at the show was a minor Stihi.ru star, who (according to [ru] poet Nadya Delaland) talked at length about the necessity of only giving positive feedback in comments and never criticizing other people's poetry: | Mpanakanto tsy ampy taona ao amin'ny Stihi.ru ny iray amin'ireo vehivavy roa mamaky ny tononkalony nandritra ny fampisehoana, (araka ny filazan'ilay[ru] poeta Nadya Delaland) izay niresaka lavabe momba ny tokony handefasana ny tamberina miabo sy mahafa-po ihany amin'ny fanehoan-kevitra ary tsy tokony tsikeraina mihitsy ny tononkalon'ny hafa : |
18 | She said that no matter how bad the poetry, one must never directly say that it is bad. | Nilaza izy fa tsy misy olana na ratsy be manao ahoana aza ny tononkalo, tsy tokony hilaza mivantana ny olona fa ratsy ilay tononkalo. |
19 | Her own poetry was “predictable” and “banal,” according to poet Boris Kutenkov, who described her in the following way [ru]: | “Mora vinaniana” sy “sarambambeny loatra” ny tononkalony, araka ny filazan'ilay poety Boris Kutenkov, izay namariparitra azy toy izao manaraka izao [ru]: |
20 | It's clear that she hasn't read anything past the Silver Age, except her neighbors on Stihi.ru, where the “poet” happily dwells in a para-literary provincial hole, savoring her own success. | Miharihary fa tsy mba namaky zavatra momba ny lasa Taom-bolafotsy izy, ankoatra ny mpifanakaiky aminy ao amin'ny Stihi.ru, izay iorenan'ilay “poety” tsara ao amin'ny lavaky ny saika-literatiora, ka ankafizany manokana ny fahombiazany manokana. |
21 | Surprisingly, this young poet won the favor of the audience (the talk show had a voting element). | Mahagaga, ankafizin'ny mpijery ity tanora poety ity (ahitana karazana latsa-bato ilay tafatafa). |
22 | But, only because [ru]: | Saingy, noho ny [ru]: |
23 | The hall, as it turned out, was full of denizens of Stihi.ru, [and] they came to support Kriuchkova. | Araka ny hita, feno ireo mpiseraseran'ny Stihi.ru ny efitrano malalaka, [ary] tonga nanohana an'i Kriuchkova izy ireo. |
24 | That said, let us leave the judging to the critics. | Midika izany hoe, avelao ny fitsarana feno tsikera. |
25 | Whatever the overall quality of the work published on Stihi.ru, in the growing vitriol of Russian public discourse, it is refreshing to find a space where arguments can be vehement, but apolitical. | Na manao ahoana na manao ahoana ny kalitaon'ny tononkalo alefa ao amin'ny Stihi.ru, ao anatin'ny kabary mikombona ao anaty hoboka Rosiana, mahafinaritra ny mahita sehatra ahitana fanehoan-kevitra mirehidrehitra, tsy misy idirana politika. |
