FACES OF RUSSIA IN THE CYCLE OF A. BLOK “RODINA” (“MOTHERLAND”)
The article discusses the women's figures in the series “Motherland” by A. A. Blok. The theoretical basis of the article is in the works of Z. G. Mints, B. I. Solovyov, V. N. Orlov, A. V. Lavrov, S. N. Broytman, A. G. Kulik. The general term of the article is “lyrical cycle”, based on the works of M. N. Darvin, I. V. Fomenko. There are women's images presented in the series (bright wife, Russian beauty, poor wife, mother). There is an attempt to make a typology of the women's images, four groups of them are made. In the end of the article there is an assumption that the integral image is “dear Galilee”. It also has a symbolic meaning for the character - “non-resurrected Christ”.
