Abstract
Poems which contain footnotes, including those with references, take a remarkable place in the poetry of Lev Loseff. They add “philologism” to his poetry, and determine the special ways which the poet uses to create the lyrical subject of his works. The lyrical subject in Loseff's poetry has two hypostases – the one of a lyric poet and the one of a commentator. Lyrical discourse is organically combined with the philological one, and the subject's self-reflection is combined with meta-reflection of the text.
