Fire as the ‘Logo’ of Artistic Worlds. The aim of the present paper is to analyse the image of fire created by two representatives, one of the Acmeist and the other of the Romantic school of poetry, N. Gumilev and S.T. Coleridge, revealing similarities and differences between their approaches. The obvious parallelism of the poets’ works is demonstrated, with particular attention paid to the fact that specific fire-related images were emphasised by Gumilev in his translation of Coleridge’s works. The attributes of the artistic universes of the Russian and of the English poet are shown: the continuity and constant interaction of their elements, the identity of the properties of the whole and of its various parts in each case.
REZUMAT. Focul ca ‘Logo’ al lumii artistice. Lucrarea de faţă vizează analiza imaginii focului în creațiile reprezentanţilor poeziei romantice şi acmeiste, S.T. Coleridge și N. Gumiliov, dezvăluind asemănările şi diferenţele de abordări dintre acestea. Este demonstrat paralelismul evident între operele acestor poeţi, o atenţie deosebită acordându-se faptului că imagini speciale evocând focul au fost evidențiate de Gumilev în traducerea operei lui Coleridge. Sunt dezvăluite trăsăturile universurilor artistice ale celor doi poeți, rus şi englez: continuitatea şi interacțiunea constantă a elementelor acestora, identitatea dintre proprietăţile întregului şi cele ale diverselor sale părți.
Cuvinte cheie: focul, simbolismul, romantismul englez, acmeismul, “poeții lacurilor”.
