Features of the Embodiment of the Myth About Eternal Feminity in A. Blok''s Drama "Neznakomka" and in F.M. Dostoyevsky''s Novel "Idiot"
The article considers the novel "Idiot" and the lyrical drama "Stranger" ("Neznakomka") through a myth prism on Eternal Femininity. Being guided by the Dostoyevsky's text, Blok, when creating his piece of art "Neznakomka", focuses on two archetypes: Eternal Femininity (Nastasia Filippovna's description in the first epigraph) and Eternal return. The first goes back to the myth on Eternal Femininity in Solovyov's poetry, the second - to the myth about "anamnesis" - recollection as means of restoration by the soul of the lost links between the world of "ideas" and the world of "things" in Platon's philosophy. Block uses this duality in the image of female portraits of the Beloved, this dualism of terrestrial and heavenly, relying not only on F.M. Dostoyevsky, but also on the myths mentioned above. In "Neznakomka", as well as in "Idiot", there is an opposition of "spiritual" and "carnal", knight motif of service to the Lady and attempt to rescue the Beauty. The author's task is to identify text roll calls or points of abutment (A. Block's expression) in these two works, which proves their inextricable link in the history of literature and philosophy.
