Седаковой «Ангел Реймса». В первом разделе рассматривается жанровая природа текста и круг его литературных источников. Во втором и третьем говорится о композиционной и коммуникативной структурах стихотворения, раскрываются его философско-религиозные, социально-политические и поэтологические аспекты. В четвертом разделе анализируются риторика и просодия текста в связи с поэтикой молитвословного стиха. «Ангел Реймса» интерпретируется как поэтическое credo Седаковой, в котором нашли отражение все основные для ее творчества концепции и приемы.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The article contains a comprehensive analysis of O. Sedakova’s poem Angel of Reims [Angel Reymsa]. The scholar examines its genre characteristics and literary sources, including R. M. Rilke’s sonnet Archaic Torso of Apollo, Dante’s Divine Comedy, and P. Claudel’s mystery play L’Annonce faite à Marie [The Tidings Brought to Mary]. Also in focus of the study are the poem’s compositional and communicative structures (these are formed by the angel’s three questions; he answers the first two, while the third one remains unanswered), as well as its philosophic-religious, socio-political, and poetological aspects. Finally, the rhetoric and prosody of the text are analyzed from the point of their connection with the poetics of liturgical free verse. Angel of Reims combines the genre features of sculptural ekphrasis, a friendly message, a liturgical hymn, and accumulates the philosophical, poetological, and socio-political ideas that preoccupied Sedakova, summarizing her poetic creed, concepts, and devices that typify her oeuvre.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>О.
