Александр Блок. Исследования и материалы

The collection "Alexander Blok. Studies and Materials" (Vol. 5) continues the series founded in 1987. The paper presents studies on the motive-thematic aspects of Blok's lyrics, its intermedial components, the reception of Blok's poetry and the very image of the poet by contemporaries and subsequent literary generations. Attention is paid to source study and textual problems of development and representation of the poet's heritage. New materials related to the origin of the Blok family, to the life of the Beketov family, to previously unknown facts that illuminate the life and creative activity of the poet during the period of revolutionary unrest.
