Abstract. The article deals with the evolution of the theme of nature in poetry of V. Savin, which show us the system of natural philosophy coordinates in the mind of the poet in early twentieth century, his polemical dialogue with the epoch and his own spiritual intentions. Poetic genres of the author most clearly demonstrating the basic laws of development of nature themes in this period, the overall picture in the evolutionary movement were chosen as the objects of the research. On the material of a wide range of sources, we attempted a comprehensive study of the theme; its importance in the development of Komi literature was showed; a wide range of philosophical and aesthetic ideas and artistic features of the embodiments of the theme specific to the Komi literature was developed. Various ideological aspects of the embodiment of the theme were revealed: the art aspect, at which the Komi poet enriched description of nature by picturesque, extraordinary beauty and poetry. He recreates the natural world in the traditions of "realistic" drawing with carefully drawn details. This fact shows that nature retains its value as an object of art knowledge in the literature as a whole. The social aspect incorporates the idea of a radical change of the world; it suggests replacing it by the "second" nature, which involves the creation of a new, convenient living environment for human. A new interpretation of literary works of V. Savin was proposed. The system of ideas associated with the understanding of man and nature in the works of the poet was presented; the typology of nature images was identified; the specific of creative thinking, reflected in the poetics of description of nature, was studied.
Key words: Komi poetry, V. Savin, man and nature, landscape.
