Abstract
The article is devoted to the motive approach to the analysis of a symbolist text. The revealing of the leading motives (an animal, playing, a mask, light, madness) allows to understand not only the laws of the structural organization of a symbolist drama, but also the author's relation to the certain period of Russian history.
