context_page_description: Pavel Dmitrievich Shirokov was a poet of Ego-Futurism in Russia in the 1910s. He was a close friend of Ivan Ignatyev, who published Shirokov's first book entitled "Rozy v Vine". Neologisms and French words occur frequently in Shirokov's works; he refers to his verses using French terms such as triolets, virelais, romances, etc., a characteristic possibly derived from fellow Ego-Futurist Igor Severyanin. In January 1913 another book of poems was published, entitled "V i Vne", described by critic Vladimir Markov as "much less successful and, strangely enough, less futuristic." Pavel Shirokov later participated in publications of the Moscow Futurists, though never published any more books, and faded into obscurity.
