Résumé anglais Efim Etkind, On "imports" in poetry and, in particular, on the Jewish accent in the Russian poetry of the 1920's. Poetical expression accumulates all the elements of a language condensing them and mobilizing all their qualities in the name of the esthetic objective. Some of these elements are borrowed from other languages and other cultures. As far as Russian in its aspect of poetical idiom is concerned, the author notes the import of the following elements: Homeric epithets, Italian phonetical system, Gipsy romance with its specific melody, metric forms of prosodies, "macaronic" vocabularies (French and German). It is within the framework of this context that the author analyzes elements borrowed from the language of the Bible, consequently from Hebrew culture and from Yiddish. During the 1920' s , Russian poetry was enriched by Jewish accents which penetrated in the work of Bagritskii, Svetlov, Utkin and Sel'vinskii. All of these variations are specific: Bagritskii represents the anti-Jewish revolt of an assimilated Jew; Utkin endeavors to create a mixed Language situated between Russian and Yiddish; SvetLov opposes to each other the two national accents and insists on the unavoidable victory of the Russian language which represents at the same time a victory of internationalism over national and Local prejudice; Sel'vinskii proceeds with phonetic experiments aiming at demonstrating the possibility of expressing by Russian graphism all the melodies and all the accents (be they dialects, slang or national), and also Gipsy, Ukrainian and Jewish folksongs.
