A student of the Department of Russian Philology Albina Shamgunova noted that Sergey Aleksandrovich is a talented representative of Russian literature of the 20th century, a great poet, subtle and at the same time with a strong sense of justice and truth.

Sergey Yesenin started his career as a representative of peasant poetry, calling himself as “the last poet of the village”, but soon he moved beyond it, and his lyrics were enriched with new topics of homeland and friendship, love and betrayal, responsibility, as well as “black man” who is near the poet.

S. Yesenin's work is distinguished by a tremulous love for peasant life, a subtle attitude toward the animal world, melodiousness and clarity of thought. Many songs were written according to Sergey Yesenin's lines, some of them also sounded at the memory evening. 

The librarian of the fiction sector Elena Likhanova noted that “great poets do not die”, they will live as long as they are remembered, loved and read.
