Aleksandr Blok’s cycle “Poems about the Beautiful Lady” embodies the romantic-mystical concept of dvoemirija (‘a dual world’): the world of the lyrical hero and the world of the Beautiful Lady. The observer plays an important role in depicting dual worlds in poetic narrative. This is a lyrical hero-narrator who acts as a subject of visual, acoustic and other perceptions of the surrounding world, occupying a certain spatial position in it. It allows him to model two poetic realities and interpret them in symbolic and mystical terms. Both worlds are built on the basis of spatial oppositions “there – here,” “far – close,” and “high – low,” which have their own formal linguistic means of expression. A border appears between two realities, an intermediate reality, which has its own visual effects: blurred boundaries, silhouettes, blurred colors. Twilight, the fog of the intermediate world gives rise to a mystical symbol of mystery surrounding the Beautiful Lady and her world. The article provides an analysis of linguistic means of expressing spatial oppositions which establishes the dominant role of visual perception in modeling dvoemirija in Blok’s poetry.
