Biography of the Artist as an Artistic and Aesthetic Category

Abstract

The study of the problem of a creative personality and an artistic hero allows us to find a solution to a number of poetic issues, such as a work of art, the history of its creation, an aesthetic ideal, a hero, an image. In the first case, attention was paid to this concept from the point of view of sociality, and in a later period it is observed that the mental state and spiritual vibrations of a human personality are illuminated on the basis of literary sources (creativity, literary text, its roots). The main principles of the biographical method in the world literature are studied in many theoretical sources in general, during this period in the West, the synthesis of a work of art with the character, talent and psychological states of its author, an individual approach to the creative process, became a form of tradition. Since the identity of the creator is full of mysteries, it is difficult to organize his biography according to strict rules. That is why in Russian literary criticism the writer's biography was called "a genre that does not obey the rules" In a biographical work, one of the main issues of the biographical method is the integration and study of different aspects of a person's life.
