The existence of death, which is seen as an inevitable reality of our lives, constantly occupies the human mind and is questioned throughout life. Poets and writers, who discuss the phenomenon of death, approach to this reality from a variety of perspectives. In some cases, this may be an accepting, in the others it becomes a resistance. The subject of death, discussed in many literary works, has an important place in Russian literature, (especially in the field of poetry), as well as in all of the world literatures. Joseph Aleksandrovich Brodsky (1940-1996) was one of the poets who carried the theme of death to his poems in Russian literature. Joseph Brodsky, who gained the 1987 Nobel Prize in Literature, became internationally well-known. Brodsky, who is a Russian and American poet, essayist, translator and playwright, came into prominence with his identity as a poet rather than his authorship. Not only his personal life but also the social events in his period had a great influence on his poetic style and he directed to human’s inner world by questioning the existence of man in his poets. Brodsky interpreted the death in his own way, drew attention to the subject of death in different poems and worried about it. Poet can’t accept the fact of death because he lost his loved ones and caused him to feel deep sorrow. Through these poems, his perspective on life, his worldview, his experiences from his own life, as well as the influence of social events in that period will be discussed in this study and especially will be pointed out the theme of death.
