Nguyen Binh and Esenin are two great poets of Vietnam and Russia. Between two poets, there have strange similarities in creative trends, choice of themes and artistic forms of poetry. They all choose to return to the nation's cultural roots in the time of the transitional creativeness with the ups and downs of history. Also, they are the poets of countryside, idyllic landscapes of the homeland
thus, they are the symbol of the national character. Their poetry art is idyllic, tied to ethnic poetry and imbued with colors and local language. Researches on Nguyen Binh and Esenin will contribute to helping us have a better understanding of similarities and influences between Russian literature and Vietnamese literature.
