Abstract
The paper is focused on studying self-consciousness of Russian poetry and its specific relations to Russian history. The theme choice is determined by celebrating the Year of Literature in Russia and a whole series of anniversaries of the classical poets. To study the correlation between poetic worldview and historic reality of 18th-20th centuries the author used a kind of “litmus historic scale”, based on the concepts of not well-known today Russian scientist, ethnographer, of Valentin A. Moshkov. Ключевые слова: national literary process, self-identity and mentality of Russian poetry, civil poetry, lyrics, historical cycles, historical declines and rises, concepts of progressivism in literature, art for art only and ahistoric character of poets and poetry.
