THE LYRICAL SUBJECT IN THE POETRY OF V. BORODIN (ON THE MATERIAL FROM THE COLLECTIONS “LOSINYI OSTROV,” “PES” AND “CLOUD NINE”)

The article deals with the analysis of the subject organization in the poetry of V. Borodin using the example of poems from the collections “Losinyi Ostrov”, “Pes” and “Cloud nine”. The lyrical subject in Borodin’s poetry is constructed in two main ways. The first of them is aimed at transcending its own subjectivity through the mode of “nobody speaks”: the lyrical subject takes the position of a narrator in the text and, at the same time, is an observer included in the world being described. That creates a space for utterance, which is intended to remove binary oppositions by appealing to an interpenetrating experience in which the hierarchical order of interactions between things is cancelled. The second method aims at including the lyrical “I” in the text, when the subject is in close connection with the described world, against the background of which he becomes only an insignificant part of the universe, coexisting on an equal footing with other parts of it.
