Abstract
The author of the article analyzes the ecopoetry of Anna Rodionova, winner of the Arkadii Dragomoshchenko Prize (2020). Ecopoetry is a particular poetic optic in which nature is seen as a self-valued system and problematization involves both contemporary ecological theories and the transformation of text structure. The analysis itself will be built on the consideration of various aspects of the poetics of Rodionova’s poems from the book “Climate”: identification of the conceptualization logic; analysis of the media-specifics of the text, language, objects; consideration of the mirage image, which is key to the organization of the book. In other words, the author considers the correlation between the mediological and ecological issues of her poetry.
