Abstract: The object of this research is the poetics of J. Brodsky's cycle “Part of Speech” as literary unity. The subject of this research is the subjective organization of poems included in the cycle “Part of Speech”. Special attention is given to the nature of value attitude of the lyrical object towards other characters depicted in poems of the cycle. Such attitude is viewed as an aspect of authorial artistic reflection and assessment of depicted reality. Following the footsteps of S. N. Broytman, the author interprets the lyrical object as a speech bearer, as well as the main (encompassing other) perspective on the world in the poem. The lyrical character is a supported character, being assessed by the lyrical object (lyrical characters include a “lyrical addressee” and “lyrical You”). The scientific novelty of this research consists in viewing the nature of value attitude of the lyrical objects towards other lyrical characters in the “Part of Speech” as an aspect of poetics of the cycle as literary unity (previous studies were dedicated only to separate poems of J. Brodsky’s cycle). The analysis of selected texts of the cycle indicates the specific nature of the relationship between lyrical object and other characters depicted in the poems: 1. the relationship of the lyrical object with other characters (the lyrical heroine, “You”, etc.) is built as an anti-dialogue, demonstrating total loneliness of the lyrical object; 2. The theme of loneliness in the cycle also intersects with the artistic images for yourself; 3. in the “Part of Speech”, the forms of indirect representation of the lyric object (when the lyrical subject refers to himself as another) also point at his self-centeredness, loneliness, and disruption of ties with others.

Abstract: The object of this research is the images of body in non-classical lyrics (late XIX - XX centuries). The subject of the research is the phenomenon of bodily fragmentation as an element of a creative product structure in the lyrics of that period. Rakhmanova focuses on the relationship between bodily fragmentation demonstrated from the view of a lyrical subject (hero) and lyrical plot. The researcher also analyzes the narration methods related to the images of bodily fragmentation used by I. Brodsky, M. Voloshina and Z. Perver. The main research methods used by the author include immanent analysis of the imaginative narration structure to define semantics of particular images, and comparison to describe similarities in poetics of that period. The novelty of the research is caused by the facts that, firstly, literary features of bodily fragmentation in non-classical lyrics are an understudied issue, and secondly, the relationship between the images of bodily fragmentation and lyrical plot is still unclear for that period. As a result of the research, Rakhmanova makes the following conclusion: in the literary works covered by the research, fragments of the body (lyrical subject and/or lyrical hero) are becoming conceptual corner stones of a lyrical plot. Fragments of the body presented through the self-reflection act as conceptual points where lyrical emotions of a hero unfold striving for his or her personal integrity.

Abstract: The scope of the research covers bodily images presented in the lyrics of the non-classical stage of the poetics of artistic modality (the end of the XIX - XX centuries). The subject of the research is the body of a lyrical subject or character depicted in fragmentation in poems relating to this stage of poetics. The article is aimed at identifying certain artistic meanings expressed in the works of non-classical lyric images of physical fragmentation. In the article, the phenomenon of corporeal fragmentation in the lyrics of the non-classical stage of the poetics of artistic modality is examined on the material of D. Merezhkovsky, I. Brodsky, and S. Plat. The phenomenon of bodily fragmentation is discussed in this article from the standpoint of historical poetics. The main methods of research are the method of immanent analysis of the figurative structure of the work, aimed at identifying the meaning of specific images, as well as the comparative method associated with identifying and describing similar features of the poetics of works related to the non-classical stage of artistic modality poetics. The scientific novelty of the research is determined, firstly, by the fact that the semantics of bodily images in the works of non-classical lyricism remains insufficiently studied; secondly, by the fact that the artistic specificity of images of bodily fragmentation in the lyric works of the non-classical stage of the poetics of artistic modality remains unexplained. The article first identifies and describes the semantic parameters of images of bodily fragmentation in non-classical lyrics.
