I 1964) is an Estonian poet, literary and cultural critic, and translator. Krull entered the Estonian literary scene in the final years of the Soviet Union as a poet, critic, translator and literary theorist. In the first decade of Estonia\u2019s regained independence, he became an important poetry innovator, critic, translator and introducer of 20th century philosophy and literary theory, whose works and interpretations of literature and lore continue to be relevant even today. <\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva;font-size: medium\"><span style=\"font-size: small\">Hasso Krull graduated Tallinn Secondary School No. 7 and from 1981-1985, studied Estonian language and literature at Tallinn Pedagogical University. In the early 90s, he studied literary theory in the Estonian Institute of Humanities (in 2005, it became a department of Tallinn University) and remained there as a teacher of the very subject. <\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva;font-size: medium\"><span style=\"font-size: small\">Krull entered the Estonian poetry scene in 1986 with his poetry collection <em>Mustvalge<\/em> (\u2018Black and White\u2019) that was published under the pseudonym Max Harnoon. The collection is rich in symbolist and decadent allusions and intertextuality. His next collection, <em>Pihlakate meri<\/em> (\u2018Sea of Rowan-trees\u2019, 1988) that was this time published under his real name had a similar approach. A powerful summary of Krull\u2019s early works is <em>Luuletused 1987-1991<\/em> (\u2018Poems 1987-1991\u2019, 1993) that is characterized by lack of common theme, fragmentation and polyphony. His references and playful, novel attitude to known cultural texts remain important in his later works as well. It can be said that the other, equally important half of Krull\u2019s works is made up of his sensitive nature observation skills and a simple picture-like quality. His poetry collections from this century, <em>Neli korda neli<\/em> (\u2018Four Times Four\u2019, 2009) and <em>Veel ju vist<\/em> (\u2018After All Still\u2019, 2012) skillfully combine symmetric structures, Estonian wordplay and unexpected nature scenes. <\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva;font-size: medium\"><span style=\"font-size: small\">An important shift occurred in the 2000s when Krull became increasingly immersed in folklore and mythical themes. This shows in essays such as <em>Loomise m\u00f5nu ja kiri<\/em> (\u2018The Pleasure and Writing of Creation\u2019, 2006) but also in Krull\u2019s first long poem and epic <em>Meeter ja Demeeter<\/em> (\u2018Meter and Demeter\u2019, 2004). His greatest mission was to show that the universal creation myth has a fundamental and creative role in all cultures that simply cannot be passively dismissed or forgotten. In this spirit of rehabilitating myths, Krull began reviving the more playful and creative side of Estonian lore both in his poetry and essays. One of the more powerful outcomes of this is the poem <em>Kui kivid olid veel pehmed<\/em> (\u2018When Stones Were Still Soft\u2019, 2014). <\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva;font-size: medium\"><span style=\"font-size: small\">As a critic, literary scholar and theoretician, Krull had an important role in the translation process that began in the post-Soviet period during which the works of many important poets and philosophers reached Estonia, who had been barred from discussion for 40 years (among others, he translated the works of Bataille, Paul Val\u00e9ry, Derrida, Cocteau, Deleuze and Guattari, Bourdieu, \u017di\u017eek, etc). Krull\u2019s essay collections <em>Katkestuse kultuur<\/em> (\u2018The Culture of Interruption\u2019, 1996) and <em>Millimallikas<\/em> (\u2018Jellyfish\u2019, 2000) were important in this context due to their systematic methodological approach to literature \u2013 by offering new approaches, primarily psychoanalytical ones, to study the works of renowned Estonian authors. <\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva;font-size: medium\"><span style=\"font-size: small\">Krull\u2019s essays and poetry are not easy to explore separately. His contemplations over the original and the created, the whole and the part, the single and the multitude cross into and inspire his poetry as well, yet without it becoming conceptual. The original connection between systematic thought and immediate sensation, structure and free-form wordplay, are what have made Krull\u2019s works inspiring to many readers. <\/span><\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\t<span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva;font-size: small\"><em>I.
