Summary/Abstract: The intimate nuances of N. Nekrasov and F. Tiutchev are brought together by the dialogic nature of poems and the development of some traditional motifs of Russian love lyrics (for example, Pushkin's "memories of the experiences"). These motifs and images (jealousy, suffering, fate, letters, flames) often acquire a different development in poetry love poems. In the article, the main object of study is N.Kekrasov's "Burning Letters" and F.Tiutchev "She sat on the floor ...". The analogy between these two texts is analyzed at the theme and visual level. The similarities and differences between the characters (lyric subject and hero) lyrical events are analyzed. The author concludes that Nekrasov's love lyrics, despite the permanence of romantic motives, is close to the nineteenth century. The second half of the Russian psychological prose is characterized by the destructive power of love.
