In addition, there are also mixed structures of lyric works, that is, those that have features of all types. Studentsʼ perception and understanding of lyric works is determined by many factors: features of lyric poetry; the originality of the poetʼs artistic manner; the character of the ideological content of the works; general development of children, their life experience.The generic features of lyrical works determine the specificity of their study, which is associated with a number of related problems. One of them is the analysis of the image of the lyrical hero. The second problem of studying poetry is its poetic form (the peculiarity of the poetic language, its feet and size, strophic structure, etc.). Reading a work in class is a very important stage of its analysis, and for some types of lyrics it is also the main one. Pupils receive the first emotional impressions, on which the perception of poetry in general depends to a large extent.
