(314 words) Alexander Aleksandrovich Blok - one of the most famous poets and lyricists of the Silver Age. It was he who owned the image of the well-known Beautiful Lady. A love theme occupies a special place in the work of the author. Through it we see all the spiritual wanderings, thoughts and feelings of the maestro - Blok.
The collection “Poems about the Beautiful Lady” (1904) can rightfully be considered the standard of Blok’s love. Each lyric work is filled with anxiety and fear, but at the same time it is here that the poet creates the image of an ideal woman. Almost every poem is dedicated to the future wife of Lyubov Dmitrievna Mendeleeva. Perhaps the central place in the collection is “I Enter the Dark Temples” (1902). In this lyrical work, the hero describes his feelings before meeting with the Beautiful Lady. He is worried, nervous, but he cannot wait to see her, because she is for him something holy, incomprehensible. "The Majestic Eternal Wife" - that is how Blok calls his female ideal. The poet reveals bright, sincere feelings to Mendeleev, the love of his life. But everything changes with her departure ... The well-known poem "The Stranger" (1906) tells of a real, "dirty" world. Here, reality is confronted with a dream, and the image of the ideal lady is scattered. If in the last lyric work of Blok the divine image captivates, now it is a stranger who has come to the tavern. In the poem "On valor, on exploits, on glory ..." (1908) we also observe a clash of the ideal and the real. At the beginning of the work, Blok describes an unearthly, unreal love that later simply disappears. In a harsh world, she has no place. Not only reality is guilty here, but the lyrical hero himself ...
Blok feels love feelings in relation to his homeland. For him, his native land is akin to his wife: “Oh, my Russia! My wife!". The poet also feels tender, deep feelings for her. Blokovsky homeland is a quiet village, a nanny, fairy tales. Yes, this is "impoverished Russia", but it is him!
So, as we see, the theme of love A.A. The block is very controversial. If at the beginning of creativity the poet is inspired by the image of an ideal woman, then, having matured, he is faced with a brutal reality. Only the love of the Motherland in the Blok is unchanged. She gives him incredible strength and inspiration!
