THE MOTIVE OF THINKING IN E. BORATYNSKY'S POETRY: ON THE PROBLEM OF THE POET'S WORLDVIEW

For the first time in the article, in the line of motivic analysis of Russian lyrics, the motive of thinking in Boratynsky's poetry is highlighted and investigated. It is thematically manifested in the lexemes "mind" and "thought", forming a special line in the poet's work – a kind of phenomenology of thought. In Pushkin and Lermontov’s poetry this motive is found in fragments of poems, in some Boratynsky's poems thinking is the central object of poetic reflection. These poems receive a new interpretation in the article. It is shown that Boratynsky's thoughts are characterized by striving beyond the limits of rationality, beyond the earthly. At the same time, the tragic notes are due to the unattainability of the desired knowledge of the spiritual world – with an organic proximity to this area of being; this intention of the poet takes away its value from life, cooling the soul to everything earthly. The poet's doom to mental aspirations that are never fully achieved is the source of the pain of being. This is due not only to the spiritual originality of the poet's personality, but also to the general processes in the history of self-awareness reflected in Russian poetry.For the first time in the article, in the line of motivic analysis of Russian lyrics, the motive of thinking in Boratynsky's poetry is highlighted and investigated.
