THE CONCEPT OF LIVE IN POETRY OF ALEXANDER FEINBERG
Keywords:
concept of life, human mistake, dignity, poetic imagery, existential reflection, inner world, hope and enduranceAbstract
This article analyses the artistic interpretation of the concept of life in the poetry of Alexander Feinberg based on two selected poems. The study demonstrates how life is presented not as an abstract philosophical idea, but through personal experience and inner emotional states. Through repetition and symbolic imagery, the poet reveals life in connection with human mistakes, dignity, and the individual’s inner world. The analysis shows that in Feinberg’s lyrical vision, life is depicted through the complex relationship between error and hope, limited existence and endurance. The poems present life not as a rigidly defined real concept, but as a gradually unfolding process of understanding.
