In his poetry, Delwig upheld the waning traditions of Russian Neoclassicism . He became interested in Russian Folklore and wrote numerous imitations of folk songs. Some of these were put to music by the composers Alexander Alyabyev and Mikhail Glinka . As a journalist, Delwig edited the periodical ''Northern Flowers'' ( 1825 – 1831 ), in which Pushkin was a regular contributor. In 1830 – 1831 , he co-edited with Pushkin the ''Literary Newspaper'' (1830–1831), which was banned by the tsarist government after a delation by Faddei Bulgarin . |
