THE LAST DAYS OF THE IMPERIAL POWER BY A. A. BLOK: GENRE AND IMAGE OF THE AUTHOR

The article covers the history of A. Blok’s work on the book The Last Days of the Imperial Power. The genre and the author’s presence in the text went through several alterations in the process of the work. Initially Blok presented himself as the author of an epic novel that described the history of the Russian autocracy in the style of Zola or Dostoevsky, then oscillated between a historical study and a political report with a diatribe, and finally, having studied the report of the Commission, he composed a chronicle of the revolutionary days. All of the above have been incorporated into The Last Days of the Imperial Power.

Keywords
