LYRICAL POETRY OF G. DERZHAVIN IN N. KARAMZIN’S ALMANAC “AONIDY”

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to reveal the relationship between G. Derzhavin’s lyrical poems on the pages of N. Karamzin’s almanac “Aonidy”, thus proving that the works of Derzhavin, that were published in all three books of the almanac and in one way or another addressed the image of women, represent the metatext. The author of the article analyzes the nature of the creative interaction between Karamzin as a publisher and Derzhavin as a poet. The main content of the research is the analysis of nine of Derzhavin’s works, embodying images of women and published in Karamzin’s almanac from 1796 to 1799. The analysis allowed to identify a stable set of motifs associated with the embodiment of the female image in Derzhavin’s works. The article is addressed to students-philologists, researchers of the Russian literature of the 18th century.
