Poetonyms-dedications in lyrical trilogy by A. Blok

A wide range of methodological approaches, methods, techniques, and ways of studying the idiosyncrasy of A. Blok, used in a huge number of publications, still leaves many sometimes contradictory assessments, differences in the results interpretation, as well as gaps in the study of the poet's language and style. The author presents reflections on initiations and their role in the poetics of three cycles of poems ("Snow Mask", "Carmen", "Twelve Years Later"), which played an important role in the formation of the poet's idiosyncrasy. Cryptonyms-dedications in the works by A. Blok were, on the one hand, a means of organizing lyrical cycles, and, on the other hand, a generally traditional method of exposing autobiographical circumstances in individual poems, revealed the nuances of the poet's relationship with the circumstances of literary life and cultural life, formed a specific tonality of world perception, and some features of the poet's idiosyncrasy.
