The Lermontov art world is considered in the book as a whole with the drama of the life of its creator. In the texts of various genre and subject-thematic nature, a single logic is found that determines the basic semantic coordinates of Lermontov's reality, the deep motives of Lermontov's mythology, its symbolic imagery, various event-character series, etc. To identify this logic in Lermontov's work is the main goal of this study.
